Falling Walls Lab is coming to Addis Ababa!
This coming Friday, 26 May 2023, at 2 pm EAT, at Goethe Institut Addis Ababa!
Falling Walls Lab is a world-class pitch competition, networking platform, and stepping stone that brings together a diverse group of students and early-career workers from different backgrounds and fields of study. It does this by giving both global and local new ideas a place to be seen and heard. The different forms help individuals drive their ideas and improve their communication skills.
