WiseNight is a free, inclusive and interactive science festival that brings researchers and the public together. Through workshops, talks, performances, exhibitions and encounters with scientists, they want to show that science is driven by curiosity, passion and teamwork — and that it is for everyone.
WiseNight offers a continuous programme for all ages and dedicated workshops for children aged 6–14. For the activities in the Waterkeyn hall and for groups of 6 people or more, prior registration is required via this form. More information about the programme, activities and locations is available on the Wisenight website.
Background
WiseNight is part of the MSCA European Researchers’ Night (CORDIS), taking place simultaneously across Europe. This third edition of WiseNight is a collaboration between five consortium partners (VUB, ULB, BeWise, VKI, GoodPlanet) and four associated partners: Atomium, TADA, GC De Kriekelaar and Fablab’ke. The two previous editions (2021 and 2024–2025) were coordinated by Belgian Women in Science (BeWiSe). The name WiseNight reflects those roots: “Wise” refers to Women in Science and to BeWiSe’s mission to make science more inclusive, visible and accessible.
We offer news and event updates, covering all domains and topics of Horizon Europe, Digital Europe & EDF (and occasionally, for ongoing projects, Horizon 2020).

Avia-GIS is a Belgian innovative SME established in 2001. They have built research and public authority trust over the past 19 years and developed a unique, disruptive software suite - VECMAP® - that supports society to overcome one of its important health threats, the spreading of Pests of Public Health importance.
With the help of a Horizon 2020 SME Instrument Phase 2 project, they will be able to add Integrated Pest Management functionalities and go to the market. With the grant, that was an essential component of their second investment round, Avia-GIS aims at raising its revenue from the current 2 M€ to 14.2 M€ in 2024, and increase the headcount from 15 to 58.
