The ATC Klaus Tschira Auditorium and Helix Room A, meanwhile, provided companies with platforms to share information about their work and career opportunities in even greater detail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"vf-figure wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"600\" class=\"vf-figure__image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.embl.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Industry-Day_HD_ATC-Foyer_11A9709.jpg\" alt=\"Four panelists sit onstage, facing toward the camera and sharing a handheld microphone.\" class=\"wp-image-77233\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.embl.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Industry-Day_HD_ATC-Foyer_11A9709.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.embl.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Industry-Day_HD_ATC-Foyer_11A9709-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.embl.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Industry-Day_HD_ATC-Foyer_11A9709-768x461.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"vf-figure__caption\">Valuable insights into the academia-to-industry pathways were shared at the career panel.

The event provides a forum for presentations and conversations on the topic of industry careers for EMBL scientists, EMBL Corporate Partners, and other company representatives. For these participating companies, it offers valuable opportunities to form connections with EMBL scientists and learn more about new research being conducted onsite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>EMBL Industry Day
