The goal of the fair is to promote innovation, establish business connections, and support the transfer of technology between science and industry. The fair includes annual activities such as exhibitions, competitions, conferences, seminars, and B2B meetings.

Jubilee Picnic of KORAB Ship Technology Students' Club

Jubilee Picnic of KORAB Ship Technology Students' Club
On Saturday 1 June, Children's Day, the KORAB Ship Technology Students' Circle Jubilee Picnic was held. The event was of special significance as KSTO KORAB is celebrating its centenary in 2024. The Circle was founded in July 1924 by a group of Polish students at the Technical University in the Free City of Gdansk. The main aim of the founders was to provide themselves with the right conditions for studying in order to be able to develop the shipbuilding industry in Poland, which had regained access to the sea after 123 years.

Over the past hundred years KORAB has undergone many changes, both in the scope of its activities and in the conditions under which its members work. Today, students are able to carry out projects of unlimited variety, enjoying opportunities that previous generations could only dream of. Taking advantage of these conditions, KORAB students have over the years demonstrated extraordinary commitment and creativity, realising ambitious projects such as pedal boats, solar hydrofoils, submersibles and remote-controlled yachts.
