CERN: An extraordinary human endeavour  CERN is a pioneer in making science, technology and know-how freely available to the world. Knowledge sharing – one of the core values enshrined in CERN’s founding convention – underpins its mission to support open science.  A brilliant example of this is the World Wide Web, developed at CERN for the benefit of society at large. At this event, leading scientists and experts will explore the extraordinary significance of international collaboration and open science in advancing scientific knowledge. They will also trace the evolution of the Web, discuss the imperative of democratisation of information and technology, and explore the emerging frontiers in digital technologies and AI. Join us for this fourth public event, held in collaboration with the CineGlobe festival , celebrating the Laboratory’s 70th anniversary and the CERN & Society Foundation’s 10th anniversary.  Event highlights: Science for All Advanced Particle Accelerators –  Panel discussion (in English with French simultaneous interpretation): join leading scientists and experts to explore the significance of international collaboration and open and inclusive science in advancing scientific knowledge. Chair: Frédéric Donck Speakers: •    Ana Godinho – Head of CERN’s Education, Communications and Outreach group •    Ana Persic – Programme Specialist for Science Technology and Innovation Policies and Open Science, UNESCO•    Javier Serrano – Leader of CERN’s Open Hardware Initiative and Board Chair of the White Rabbit collaboration•    Michel Spiro – Emeritus Research Director at CEA, President of IUPAP and Chair of the Board of the CERN & Society Foundation For Everyone – Documentary screening (in English with French subtitles): in 1989, the world’s largest physics laboratory, CERN, was a hive of ideas and information stored on incompatible computers. Tim Berners-Lee conceived a unifying structure to link information across different computers, leading to the birth of the World Wide Web in 1991. This documentary traces the origins of the Web and its future implications, setting the stage for our second panel discussion.
