About the Science Pitching Session selection

We are looking for ambitious projects, aimed at a prime time, international audience. In particular, we seek programmes that enhance awareness of Science and Knowledge topics in a compelling, story-driven way.

Members from the Eurovision Science & Knowledge group evaluate all projects received paying particular attention to the following criteria:

  • Originality
  • Relevance
  • International appeal
  • Feasibility
  • Special attention is given to projects that have a cross media approach
