VENUE
ANT 2027 will be hosted by the Netherlands Organization for Applied Scientific Research (TNO), the largest independent applied research organization in the Netherlands. Established by law in 1932, TNO bridges scientific knowledge and practical innovation, working closely with industry, government, and society to develop solutions to real-world challenges.

The conference will take place at TNO's Delft location. Located in the heart of the Netherlands, Delft is a beautiful historic city renowned for its picturesque canals, charming streets, and iconic blue-and-white Delftware pottery. At the same time, Delft is a vibrant hub for science, technology, and innovation. The city is home to Delft University of Technology (TU Delft), one of Europe's leading technical universities, making it an ideal setting for ANT 2027.
