Demystifying CERN
Join us for a tech breakfast with Han Hubert Dols, Head of Entrepreneurship & Innovation Networks at CERN, and learn what CERN is actually doing.
Han Hubert Dols gives a clear and accessible introduction to what CERN actually is — not just a giant particle accelerator, but one of the world’s most advanced innovation engines. He explains how CERN works, why it exists, and how fundamental research turns into technologies that shape everyday life.
Drawing on his role in CERN’s Knowledge Transfer Group, Han shows how companies, researchers and entrepreneurs can collaborate with CERN, and why “big science” matters far beyond physics. It’s a fast, engaging overview that answers the simple question many people have: what does CERN really do, and why should the rest of us care?
