Save the date: Together let’s shape the future of science
📍 Banff Centre, Canada | 📅 May 27–29, 2025
Join us in Banff
You’ve been invited to shape the future of scientific communication.
For decades, the open-science movement has focused on access—but access alone is not enough. It’s time to shift the conversation toward continuous and connected processes in science—ones that embrace iteration, automation, and deep integration with data and computation.
Continuous Science Foundation is hosting a two-day event set against the awe-inspiring backdrop of Banff, this intimate, high-impact workshop will bring together select experts who are leading this transformation. Through immersive outdoor experiences, in-depth discussions, and strategic storytelling, we will develop a collective vision and the communication tools needed to drive change beyond this meeting.
You will be among 15 other open-science champions, researchers, and infrastructure leaders—each with the influence and vision to shape the next era of scientific communication. Help ignite a movement toward a future where science is iterative, limitless, collaborative, and ever-evolving.
Just bring your ideas.
Thank you to The Navigation Fund for funding the event, including travel, accommodation, food, and workshop facilitation.
