This week EquipSent turned five years old! Thank you to everyone who has been part of this exciting journey so far ! We are also proud to have hosted our 2022 General Assembly with everybody from founding members to newest volunteers tuning in. Let's enable education everywhere !

Shipments that maximize the impact for the recipients is often limited by the availability of specific devices. So in 2021, we hosted the first edition of a Donation Competition! Rewards for the valuable devices were kindly sponsored by AVETH . Congratulations to the winners !

How can we scale up our equipment transfers ? That is the key question that students of this year's joint ETH Zürich and Universität St.Gallen (HSG) EMBAx program will address in exciting workshops and discussion sessions, the students will analyze our specific case, and find tailored solutions!

The NCCR Microbiomes and WiNS are proud to announce the second edition of the #SwissMicrobiomesForum, taking place on Tuesday, 30 January 2024, from 14h00 CET at the ETH Zurich Main Building --> get your free ticket now: eventbrite.com/e/swiss-microb…
