Five weeks to TH/NGS 2025

We’re just five weeks away from TH/NGS 2025, our yearly gathering exploring this year’s theme: Resize < Remix < Regen!
Starting today, we’ll be sending weekly updates with the latest program announcements. This week, we’re excited to share our first keynote speaker, five workshops, and details about our student exhibitions.

A Fresh Program Format

We’ve refined this year’s schedule based on what you value most. Here’s what’s new:

  • Two dedicated workshop time slots to give hands-on sessions the attention they deserve
  • Extended exhibition viewing time so you can fully experience the projects on display
  • Our signature opening plenary and closing session with keynotes and short talks
