After having met Pint of Science in the UK and France, I couldn’t help bringing this amazing idea to my home country! I love to mix up languages in conversations, climb yet another mountain or anticipate the next book to add to my bookshelf. I'm so excited about #pint20! :)
Guillaume Corradino

Floriane Louboutin
Hungary Director
Since the first Pint of Science in France (2014), I am involved in this festival. When I get back to school for studying veterinary medicine in Budapest it didn't exist here. That's why I've decided to set it up in Hungary. Come and join us for the 1st Pint in Hungary!
