Crosstalks – Where great minds meet!
Crosstalks is an international academic talk show, broadcast once a month by two of Swedens top universities – KTH Royal Institute of Technology and Stockholm University. It is a platform for discussions on global challenges in an open and on-going dialogue with viewers around the world. The tone of the programme is relaxed, with a twinkle in its eye: just like a good, engaging lecture.
