Link to join will be shared with all registered participants one day before the event starts!
Is it possible for a work of science to be a work of art, or vice-versa? What is the connection between art, science and innovation? Where can we draw the line? And even more, should there be a line at all?
Join us in this talk where we will explore these questions and discuss how science and art intersect to inspire innovation.
Our guest speaker, Dr. Kitty Yeung, will share her journey, showcasing how she has driven intrapreneurship and hackathon projects within a corporate environment.
In addition, she will talk about the creative endeavor that led her to write “The Quantum Computing Comics notebook”.
Last but not least, she will tell us more about how she created her own fashion brand “Art by Physicist” which produces tech-fashion products and what she has learned about pushing innovation in the traditional fashion industry.
When art and science mirror each other, their combined potential increases exponentially. Now, more than ever, scientific experimentation and creative expression must be combined in order to drive innovation.
We look forward to seeing you!
