Imperial College Club of Germany (ICCG) 2026 Annual Conference
The Changing Landscapes of Europe
Together with the Imperial College Alumni Group in Poland, we are very excited to invite you to Warsaw this autumn!
This year’s meeting, The Changing Landscapes of Europe, will bring together alumni from Germany and Poland, alongside leading voices from across food systems, biodiversity and sustainability, to explore how a changing geopolitical landscape is reshaping Europe — and what this means for sustainability in the 21st century.
We will kick off the weekend on Friday evening with a welcome reception, bringing alumni from Germany and Poland together over drinks and dinner. An informal start to the weekend — and the first opportunity for our two alumni communities to meet, connect and exchange ideas.
We look forward to welcoming you to Warsaw!
