IdeaSquare  Dedicated location at CERN that hosts detector upgrade/R&D projects and facilitates MSc-level student projects that also include a direct connection with Society  Currently, ATLAS has two EU-funded projects (TALENT, EDUSAFE) and CMS two suitable initiatives for these purposes. Later on, others may wish also to join  Testing the concept for ATTRACT-initiative (  At present, IdeaSquare hosts and facilitates the 2nc Challenge Based Innovation course (CBI) for MSc-level, cross-disciplinary student teams interacting with researchers at CERN, with a human-centric approach  When IdeaSquare is not in full use, it can also host short innovation events such as Hackathons (e.g. Tribeca, Port, HEAD), or contribute to special schools (e.g. OpenLab summer school?)  Activities are self-financed, CERN offers the basic infrastructure  IdeaSquare is an innovation experiment by itself; first experiences to be reported to CERN management in late 2015/early 2016 European Organization for Nuclear Research Organisation européenne pour la recherche nucléaire
