Science & Technology meet Policy

Bridging the gap for an evidence based governance

As a Research and Technology Organisation (RTO), LIST provides neutral, science-based policy support tailored to Luxembourg's strategic needs, promoting a resilient, circular, and sustainable society while enhancing the competitiveness of the Luxembourg economy and delivering significant socio-economic impact.

Our unique blend of regulatory expertise, scientific competence, technical and IT capabilities, reinforced by our extensive national and international network, enables us to provide interdisciplinary solutions to relevant stakeholders.

This positions LIST as a key intermediary between policy, research, and technology, providing impartial, science-based advice on policy definition, implementation, and evaluation at both national and EU levels.

To strengthen existing relationships and foster new ones, we invite all policy-makers and stakeholders - from national ministries and political stakeholders to semi-public actors - to join us at our dedicated event, where we will present our know-how solutions and activities on societal and public sector challenges.

We will be addressing a number of critical issues such as:

  • Mobility
  • Construction and land management
  • Chemical safety
  • Water Management
  • Cybersecurity
  • Air quality
  • Agriculture and viticulture...
