INTERNATIONAL PROJECTS' FORUM

February 19-25 2026

WINTER INTERNATIONAL PROJECTS’ FORUM

From 19 to 25 February 2026, BEST Valencia hosts the Winter International Projects Forum (wIPF), a key international event that brings together students from all over Europe to shape the future of BEST projects and create real impact. It starts with an opening ceremony at the Universitat Politècnica de València, followed by several days of intensive project work in an international environment.

WHAT’S A wIPF?

The Winter International Projects Forum (wIPF) is a biannual international BEST event where representatives from across Europe meet to coordinate, review and launch projects that affect the entire BEST network.

During one intensive week, around 80–120 STEM students and international BEST members work together through meetings, workshops and strategic sessions, combining professional development with cultural exchange.

BEST CONFERENCE DAY

The BEST Conference Day (BCD) is the opening day of the wIPF and a one-day European symposium focused on sustainability, innovation and professional development.

It brings together STEM students from the Universitat Politècnica de València and from all across Europe, offering a unique opportunity to connect students, companies and institutions in a meaningful way.

CONNECTING STUDENTS AND COMPANIES

During the BEST Conference Day, companies have the opportunity to interact directly with highly motivated STEM students through talks, workshops, discussion groups, case studies and networking sessions.

Each session is designed to create value for both students and companies, fostering knowledge exchange, professional growth and long-term connections.

The Winter International Projects Forum and the BEST Conference Day aim to empower students, strengthen international collaboration and bring academia and industry closer together.
