The Falling Walls Science Summit (previously Falling Walls Conference) is an annual science event in Berlin, Germany, which takes place from 7 to 9 November and coincides with the anniversary of the Fall of the Berlin Wall.^[1] Guided by the question "Which are the next walls to fall in science and society?" the Science Summit aims to showcase scientific breakthroughs, foster a dialogue between science and general public and connect global leaders from science, business, and media to develop solutions for the greatest challenges of our time. Originally being a one-day conference, the summit has expanded and now spans three days: Falling Walls Pitches on 7 November (pitches from up-and-coming scientists, science start-ups, and science engagers), Falling Walls Circle on 8 November (round table debates between global leaders from science, politics, and business) and Falling Walls Breakthrough Day on 9 November (keynotes of the Falling Walls Science Breakthrough of the Year laureates and renowned international speakers).
