SUMMARY:SlovakiaTech 2025: THE YEAR OF X "The world at a crossroad"
DESCRIPTION:Join the SlovakiaTech Forum-Expo between 17-18 September\, 2025. This is the largest innovation and technology conference in Slovakia\, bringing together technology enthusiasts\, experts\, developers\, innovators\, and leaders from around the world every year. \nAbout the conference:\nSlovakiaTech 2025 will be a platform for exploring potential answers to these crossroads challenges—in the fields of innovation\, business\, and technology. It will also serve as a space for seeking solutions to Slovakia’s re-industrialisation\, focusing on higher added value\, overcoming the middle-income trap\, and strengthening resilience (economic\, cybersecurity\, climate\, etc.) against external stressors and shocks. Moreover\, it will be a forum for shaping a profitable yet environmentally sustainable economic model for Slovakia’s future. SlovakiaTech 2025 is the combination of an international professional conference and an innovation & technology trade fair. You can expect: \n🎤 120+ speakers\n💡 3 stages\n📍 2 days full of innovation\, technology\, and networking. \nPlus\, Sophia the Robot\, the world’s first humanoid with citizenship and a UN Innovation Ambassador\, will appear as a speaker at the conference! For more information about the program\, click here. \nThe entry for this event is free\, but registration is mandatory. You can register here. \n

SUMMARY:Microcontrollers for Makers
DESCRIPTION:Dive into the world of microcontrollers and interactive technology in this hands-on workshop led by I+A\, working at the intersection of art and technology. Open to individuals of all levels\, this session is ideal for those curious about electronics\, coding\, and the creative possibilities of Arduino-based projects. \nThroughout the workshop\, participants will learn the basics of programming and prototyping with Arduino\, a popular open-source microcontroller platform. You’ll build a simple circuit using LEDs\, buttons\, and sensors and gain a foundational understanding of input-output logic\, which can be applied in interactive installations\, kinetic art\, sound-based work\, and more. \nWhether you’re a complete beginner or looking to refresh your knowledge\, this workshop offers a supportive space for experimenting with technology in creative ways. By the end of the session\, you’ll have built your first interactive circuit and developed the confidence to continue exploring Arduino in your own artistic practice.
