With UNLimited 2023 the universities will show how they work continuously towards better education, excellent research and an even bigger impact on their region. UNLimited will bring together new insights, best practices, learned lessons to make universities more versatile and resilient, so that they can take society to the next level.

Queen Máxima will festively open the first edition of UNLimited. As honorary president of the MIND Us Foundation, she will pay special attention to the mental well-being of students. Minister Robbert Dijkgraaf and ASML CEO Peter Wennink will also be present at the opening. Furthermore, we take a look into the galaxy through the lenses of the biggest radio telescope of the world with dr. Marc Klein Wolt, director of the Radboud Radiolab. On Friday we close the festival with the Academic Startup Competition, but not before we stopped for a quick trip to the moon in the mobile planetarium. Between sessions there is enough time for good coffee and good conversations with initiatives for the higher education sector like Wetenschapveilig, Recognition & Rewards and the team from the Teaching Agenda.

The programme is put together by and for the universities, about education policy, talent strategies, campus development and dilemma’s in national and international cooperation, student wellbeing, digitalisation, flexibilisation and right use of data. All in a different guise than the one you are used to: no reports and papers, but discussion, Theatercolleges, whirling workshops, a trip through space and the education innovation café.
