Lunchtime Meeting: Discovering Einstein’s Tracks

„Follow in the footsteps of great scholars, researchers and Nobel Prize winners.“Not very likely that „Lunchtime Meeting“ won’t grab the opportunity to do just that!  Our sincere thanks to Martina Eyer, from the Office for Events & Location Development, who made this event possible. A joint collaboration between the Library and the Office for Events & Location Development.

Kontakt über Mittag /Lunchtime Meetings

The IT Services (ITS) has more than 200 employees who are spread out in about 15 different buildings. “Kontakt über Mittag” provides an opportunity for cross-departmental activities in small groups. During these lunchtime meetings we get to meet interesting personalities, learn about exciting research at ETH and visit historical or simply fascinating parts of ETH Zurich. All ITS employees are welcome to join. Participation is limited and on a first come first serve basis.
