The City of Brno considers the innovation and development of scientific potential one of its main priorities. It financially supports or co-organizes various projects, activities, and events that help bring these topics closer to the general public. Examples include the increasingly popular Days of Electron Microscopy, Game Access, Brno Space Week, the Festival of Science, etc.
