On Friday, 15 September, Campus Groningen came alive during the annual Campus Trail. Nearly 600 participants walked, danced, and enjoyed a route full of innovative companies, atmospheric music points, and surprising stops. Young and old joined in: from students to CEOs, from researchers to local residents. New this year was the addition of BuildinG to the route, which gave the trail an extra boost of future-focused energy.
Check out the factsheet with statistics such as the total number of participants, the youngest and oldest participant, and the average age.
From the first beats to the final stretch, the energy was high. View the photo collection here.
