VR SCI FEST

Research group or start-up based in the west coast area of Sweden? Virtual reality science festival (VR SCI FEST) is an excellent opportunity to showcase your demos in an inspiring environment to a large multidisciplinary and global community, free of charge.

This is the 2nd edition of the international festival dedicated to immersive technologies in science and art organized by KTH, KI and SU researchers and hosted by KTH Royal Institute of Technology. Last year’s event was a great success with 35 organizations and startups, 12 universities and 60 specially invited guests from all over the world working together to make it a truly immersive experience for our 3000 visitors.

The theme of the festival this year is Virtual City, the place and space of our daily life, where knowledge and ambitions collide, where physical meets the virtual, where tech and science immerse to bring us ideas and solutions to some of the most pressing challenges of humanity in areas of architecture, transport, industry 4.0, ICT, health, media, AI, and arts. The city is our commonplace in which we live and make things happen. The virtual city is our new world in which we also thrive coexisting in realities we have imagined. A world as it could be. We think immersive technologies present an advanced visualization for understandings of the incredible things we know and discover what is waiting to be known.

VR_Sci Fest is the only European non-profit festival of its kind that is free and open to the public. Our supporters contribute to the festival in order to create an educational and cultural value that manifests openness and wide accessibility of new technologies. The festival program is rich and diverse: from popular 360 films to research labs and an industrial expo.

'VR Sci Fest demonstrates the wide potential of VR / AR technology, bringing together students, business, startups and artists. An initiative that breaks barriers and encourages unexpected collaborations, which create new solutions and boost Stockholm as a tech city.' Maria Rankka / CEO Stockholm Chamber of Commerce
