Future Talent Programme

The GÉANT Learning and Development (GLAD) team along with GÉANT National Research and Education Network (NREN) partners, offers programmes to facilitate engagement between students, young professionals and the GÉANT community.

The Future Talent Programme (FTP) connects future talent with the GÉANT community and provides a platform for young voices. Participants receive professional presentation training to articulate their ideas and deliver powerful presentations. This allows them to showcase their research to industry experts, bringing young talent and the research and education networking fields together.

Applications are now closed, but if you wish to discuss registration contact the GLAD team via the online form.


Lightning Talk Challenge

The Future Talent Programme offers students the opportunity to present their research at GÉANT's TNC conference. Participants submit proposals to present their ideas as a 5-minute "Lightning Talk". FTP finalists, selected by the TNC Programme Committee, are invited to present at TNC with their travel expenses covered.

Participation in the TNC Lightning Talk Programme follows TNC's rules and formats.
