Come and dive with us
into the fascinating world of innovative sustainability in science, technology, and culture.
About DeepDive
DeepDive is an innovative cultural-scientific festival aiming to bring together the Transylvanian community of young adults engaged in intellectual development.
One of the main objectives of the talks held by our guests is interactivity since they are designed for you to participate in them with your own views. Asking questions and discussing ideas is the most important part of learning new things and DeepDive gives you an opportunity exactly for this.
The other strength of our festival is that it is open for the whole community. Our guests will come from different places, mainly from Romania and Hungary, but some of them from even further abroad. Talks will be held in three languages: English, Hungarian and Romanian. This, besides its symbolic value of bringing together all the local language groups, also ensures that everyone finds what they are looking for. We try to come up with a great variety of topics so that you can encounter ideas that are close to you as well as some that you’ve never heard of.
Want another argument for coming to DeepDive? There will be a lot of people just like you. Another of our main purposes with this event is to provide a great opportunity for networking and creating new connections among the young and active members of our community.
DeepDive is powered by Érted, a small innovative Transylvanian civil organisation, full of motivated and ambitious young intellectuals. We deal with a lot of community projects, ranging from scientific scholarships to debate contests, awareness raising campaigns and cultural publicity projects. In the demanding venture of bringing this event to you we are helped by some very loyal partners and numerous sponsors supporting us.
To sum it up
We invite you to jump with us into the unknown, explore fascinating topics and connect with other folks like you.
