Event description

Cluster Day is a prestigious event that showcases the power of cluster organizations and the benefits of cooperation between companies within clusters to the professional public. We are planning to make it even bigger in Pilsen. We will transform the hall of Pilsen’s TechTower, one of the most modern technology parks in the Czech Republic, into a Technology Town and present Czech innovations to the general public. Did you know that we have an official government quantum representative in Pilsen, that the Czech Republic is a nanotechnology and laser superpower, and that Czech technology will be flying in American fighter jets? Do you have technology that you want to show everyone? Can we see it? Cluster Day is exactly the event where great Czech companies go to shine. In October!
