The judges focus on the works presented at the forum according to their research, results, feasibility, replicable and doable initiative for use. Mr. Ammar Abbas won the third prize in the forum by “Breaking the Wall of Latent Knowledge Discovery Through AI”, Mr. M. Batmunkh won the second prize by “Breaking the Wall of Traditional Functional Drinks” and Mrs. M. Oyungerel won the first prize and trophy by “Breaking the Wall of Indoor Air Pollution” and became the National Winner of Falling Walls Lab Mongolia’21.
The national winner will represent Mongolia at the Falling Walls Lab Int, which will be held in Berlin on November 8-9th this year and compete with more than 100 international national winners. All International Lab finalists are eligible to attend the Falling Walls Science Summit as an audience, and the international winner will receive a cash prize.
At the end of the first and the second day, ENGAGEx hosted not only five international experts from the Falling Walls Engage Community, INWES - International Association of Women Engineers and Scientists, Falling Walls Lab Mongolia’19 engagers but also domestic and international experts, teachers also researchers and made discussion by sharing experiences.
On the second day of the forum, scientists and researchers from Ireland, India, Egypt, Finland, Germany and Mongolia involved in the Falling Walls Lab ENGAGEx event. The participants discussed a wide range of issues, including ways to promote young generation’s interests to natural science and engineering, involvement of women engineering in internalional level and in the role of regular journals in the field of technology, natural science and information dissemination. The most interesting part of the event was the poetry section. Mongolian young researchers from The Night Poetry Network presented their new poems on the topics discussed during the two days of forum.

Statements of Honoured Guests
His Excellency Jörn Rosenberg, German Ambassador:
The mission of Falling Walls – taking inspiration the Fall of the Berlin Wall – is to connect science, business and society to facilitate exchange and creative ideas across disciplines to tackle the most pressing challenges of our time. Originating in Germany, it is a joint endeavor of researchers, entrepreneurs, decision-makers, artists, thinkers, and movers worldwide to find the next breakthroughs for our societies. Nobody can solve these big issues alone. We are therefore delighted about the great dedication and commitment of the Falling Walls partners and participants in Mongolia. There were many exciting ideas presented today, and we wish the Mongolian competitors every success at the big stage of the Falling Walls Conference in Berlin!
Prof. Jung Sun Kim, INWES President 2021-2023:
INWES strongly encourages the participation of women and girls in STEM on a global level to showcase their innovative ideas that can create an impact and lead to making a better future worldwide.
Prof. Dr. Battsengel Baatar, Rector of GMIT:
The Falling Walls Lab Mongolia’21+ENGAGEx aims to introduce new scientific initiatives and outreach projects that break the wall between science and society. It disseminates scientific discoveries and innovations not only to the public but also to entrepreneurs and investors to promote successful scientific cooperation and increase the understanding and value of science engagement.
As a host institution, German-Mongolian Institute for Resources and Technology, we organized in 2019 in cooperation with Arts & Media Project Management & Consulting NGO, the Falling Walls Lab platform for early-career researchers, entrepreneurs, and professionals. The winner, the labster of Mongolia, had a chance to participate in the FW conference in Berlin and presented his scientific work in FWLabFinal world-class pitch competition among the labsters worldwide.
Dr. Batkhuu Nyam-Osor, Vice-President for Research and Cooperation, NUM:
We are thankful to organization team for providing excellent chance for young Mongolian and foreign scientists to share the experiences and we hope it would promote the research partnership more extensively in the future.
NUM is realizing its social responsibility and be knowledge leader in terms of disseminating scientific knowledge, achievements and discoveries in the society using it for the benefit of the society, conducting research on the wide range of social, economic, technological and environmental problems faced to the society making a contribution to achievement of the Global Sustainable Development Goals adopted by the United Nations in 2015. Thank you very much for your attention and wish you big success to the organizing team, Labsters and participants of the event.
Mrs. Oyuntuya Oyunjargal, Cultural Envoy of Mongolia and Founder of Arts and Media Project Management and Consulting NGO:
Falling Walls is a series of international events that have a significant impact on the implementation of advanced scientific and innovation initiatives that are socially and economically significant and bring tangible results. During the event, scientists presented their intellectual creations and innovations, while entrepreneurs, investors and decision-makers take the key steps to bring them to society.
We are trying to organize Falling Walls event platforms in Mongolia continuously since 2019 because they bring real results. The FFalling Walls Lab Mongolia, in conjunction with the ENGAGEx seminar, provided an opportunity for Labsters and young Mongolian scientists to learn from international experts in the field of scientific communication and exchange experiences on how to deliver their research projects to the target sectors.
