SHAPESHIFT is a series of events exploring the relationship between humanity and innovation. Art, science, politics, curiosity and innovation shape and reshape the world we live in.

After the first two single-day editions of the initiative SHAPESHIFT Talks, we expanded the SHAPESHIFT universe into a three-day festival themed The Unknown as a Creative Force.
Innovation isn’t born from knowing. It’s born from not knowing. Because the unknown holds the key to the questions which have no answers.

SHAPESHIFT is for you, for your neighbor, for every student, for artists, and engineers. SHAPESHIFT is for everyone. For the forward-thinkers, the z individuals, and the curious shapeshifters.
