Now and Next Research Competition

Your Research, Our Future.

Presenting the Now and Next Research Competition. Five minutes to bridge the gap between today’s indoor air science and tomorrow’s global impact.

The Now and Next Competition isn't just a presentation; it’s a masterclass in scientific communication. Participants have five minutes to command the stage:

  • The NOW (3 Minutes): Dive into the data. Clearly and concisely explain your current research, methodology, and findings to your peers and the ISIAQ community.

  • The NEXT (2 Minutes): Zoom out. Pitch the broader impact of your work. How does this research change the world? What is your vision for the future of indoor environments?
