Learn about our mission, team, and participating schools.
The 2026 Research Symposium is Beijing's first and only cross-school research event organized by and for international school students.
Our mission is simple: no judges, no competition, pure interest. We believe research should be driven by curiosity, not grades or awards. Yet we still hold ourselves to a high standard of quality research — this is not a casual or sloppy showcase, but a genuine effort to produce meaningful, rigorous work. This symposium creates a space where students can share their research, ask each other questions, and exchange knowledge to foster a richer academic culture across schools.
Beyond the physical event, our online gallery ensures every project reaches a wider audience — creating a permanent record of student research in Beijing's international school community.
Three student leads organizing the 2026 Symposium.

International schools across Beijing joining the symposium.
More schools will be added as confirmations are received.
This website and its gallery will remain online as a permanent archive of student research. Future symposiums will add to this collection, building a multi-year record of student research across Beijing's international schools.
