On April 16, the MetaAngstrem–2026 finale officially took place at Angstrem.
For the first time in the long history of our interdisciplinary collaboration, the final presentations and results were held in the format of an international online conference.

This event brought together a true mini-UN of science and education.

The conference organizing committee included leading representatives of respected educational and scientific institutions:

  • RTS (an international software development company)
  • V. N. Karazin Kharkiv National University
  • National University of Pharmacy
  • Riga Stradiņš University
  • Kharkiv State Biotechnological University
  • National Technical University “KhPI”

So this has long gone beyond the “school level.” It was one of those moments when people accustomed to entirely different scales are listening to you — and you’re thinking: okay… stay calm.

And, notably, our participants did much more than simply stay calm — at times, they were brilliant.

Because on stage there were not just “students with presentations,” but highly charismatic, lively, witty, and at times dangerously convincing presenters who suddenly reminded everyone of one thing: age is hardly an argument when you truly understand what you’re talking about.

Against this backdrop, the theme Movement turned out to be as literal as possible.

168 students and 21 teachers spent six months exploring exactly this idea — and, apparently, accelerated it to the point where it took on a life of its own.

Movement began moving on its own.

In some projects, it looked like classical science: from molecules to populations and ecosystems.

Elsewhere, movement suddenly became history: migrations, trade routes, journeys — everything that changed the world long before it became the topic of a presentation.

And then there was culture — where movement was no longer about legs or molecules, but about ideas.

Traditionally, there were also 3D models created in Onshape.

Because if you’re talking about movement, you might as well make it look impressive too.

And if all of this sounds too big to fit into a single day — well, that feeling is completely justified.

That’s why the results of this tremendous work haven’t disappeared anywhere. They have all been carefully collected on the Movement portal website.

A huge thank you to everyone who became part of this movement. To our students — for the courage to think, explore, search, and step onto the stage with their ideas. To our teachers — for six months of patience, support, revisions, advice, and all those “let’s improve this just a little more” moments. And to the organizers, partners, and everyone working behind the scenes — thank you for the enormous effort that often remains invisible during the finale, yet without which none of this would have happened. Because projects like this are never created by individual effort alone, but by the shared energy of a large team. And perhaps that, too, is one of the most important kinds of movement.
