The Université de Lorraine will be present at the Foire Expo in Nancy from 27 May to 4 June 2023, with a stand where the general public can discover and experiment with innovation. The initiative is being run by the Lorraine Fab Living Lab, ENSGSI and ERPI, in partnership with L’Octroi Nancy, a creative and civic third place.
