Registration Now Open for the ENLIGHT Impact Conference 2027
We are pleased to invite you to the ENLIGHT Impact Conference 2027, hosted by Comenius University in Bratislava, Slovakia on 11–12 February 2027!
The ENLIGHT European University Alliance is organising its Third Impact Conference bringing together academics, university leaders, management staff, students, societal stakeholders and impact experts to reflect on how collaboration can contribute to generating impact, both within ENLIGHT and across the broader European higher education and research landscape.
The conference will explore how universities can move beyond isolated initiatives towards more connected, collaborative, and impact-oriented approaches. It will provide a space to exchange practices, critically reflect on challenges, and collectively shape approaches for embedding impact across the full university mission.
The ENLIGHT Impact Conference will be the fora to:
- Explore how connectivity and collaboration can strengthen impact across education, research, innovation and service to society.
- Share institutional approaches, practices and tools for fostering collaborative and impact-driven university ecosystems.
- Showcase inspiring examples of collaboration within and beyond universities and learn from concrete collaborative practices and experiences.
- Examine the role of European University Alliances and cross-sector partnerships in driving transformation and amplifying impact across Europe.
- Foster networking, matchmaking and collaboration opportunities among academics, practitioners, university leaders, students, and societal stakeholders.
Registration is open until 15 January 2027, 23:59 CET. Please note that overall conference capacity is limited, so we encourage you to register as soon as possible to secure your attendance.
