About the BètaBreak

The BètaBreak is organized by a team of students as a monthly discussion platform at the Amsterdam Science Park. Every month, we gather a panel of researchers, business people, politicians and authors to discuss a variety of topical subjects within the sciences. By doing this, we are offering an interdisciplinary insight into the different branches and discoveries of our faculty. The BètaBreak is supported by the faculty of science of the University of Amsterdam and the Student Impact Centre.
