Oct 2, 2025

We are pleased to announce that the HALRIC Final Conference will take place on 24–25 February 2026 in Lund, Sweden.

The event will mark the culmination of three years of cross-border collaboration to strengthen access to life science research infrastructures in the Öresund–Kattegat–Skagerrak–Hamburg region. It will bring together project partners, researchers, infrastructure providers, policymakers, and regional stakeholders to:

  • Highlight HALRIC’s achievements
  • Share outcomes and lessons learned
  • Explore pathways for future cross-border cooperation

Through presentations, panel discussions, and interactive sessions, participants will gain insights into how HALRIC has helped shape a more connected and competitive research ecosystem – and how this momentum can be sustained and expanded.
