May is the day! Then EYE (European Young Engineers) and YKE (Young KIVI Engineers) will start the jointly organised 3-day conference in Eindhoven (exploration day, development day, cultural day).

Due to great interest, all regular tickets are sold out! But we can still offer Young Kivi members the exclusive opportunity to be present at the Saturday. An additional 20 tickets have been made available for this purpose, so be quick! And in preparation, also fill in this short survey"KIVI, an added value for young engineers".

What can you expect from the Saturday ?

Workshops and lectures
A day full of workshops/lectures in an inspiring international and vibrant mix of numerous European cultures. The workshops and lectures will cover soft skills and technical topics in the fields of High Tech, Automotive and Water management. You will start to see examples of technology that is already being developed and commercially exploited at full speed, which will give a good idea of our future society and the speed at which we are approaching it.

Young KIVI meetup
The first workshop of the day is especially for Young KIVI members, the Young KIVI meetup. Here, the results of the survey"KIVI, an added value for young engineers" will be discussed and the YKE board will briefly present the state of affairs and there will be room to brainstorm on new projects (after this conference) that we want to take up. A great time to get to know fellow young KIVI members and get involved in activities. And a nice warm-up for the rest of the workshop-filled day. This meetup is included in the ticket.

Gala dinner
At the end of the day, there will be a gala dinner with all conference attendees to close the day. Come along and "Diversify yourself, connect and learn at Young KIVI Engineers" !
