Blood Donation Drive and “Mixed Reality” Experience Join PASTECHL Podgorica 2025

In the spirit of promoting health, innovation, and social responsibility, the upcoming 2nd Annual Scientific Conference on Physical Activity and Sports Tech for Healthy Lifestyles (PASTECHL Podgorica 2025) will host a voluntary blood donation campaign in collaboration with the Institute for Blood Transfusion of Montenegro.

The event will take place on October 17, 2025, from 09:00 to 12:00, at the Science and Technology Park of Montenegro. This initiative aims to unite researchers, students, professionals, and citizens around a shared mission, contributing to the well-being of others while fostering awareness about the importance of blood donation as a simple act that saves lives.

As part of the wider PASTECHL program, visitors will also have the opportunity to experience the unique “Mixed Reality” Adventure, organized by the Institute for Blood Transfusion of Montenegro in partnership with Abbott. From October 13 to 24, 2025, participants will be able to step into a virtual world where technology and humanity meet, exploring how immersive digital experiences can inspire positive health behavior and engagement with medical innovation.

The PASTECHL conference, under the theme “Shaping the Future of Sports & Health Monitoring Systems,” continues to highlight the transformative role of science and technology in improving quality of life. This year’s collaboration between the scientific community and the healthcare sector reflects a shared commitment to building a healthier, more compassionate society.

By joining the blood donation campaign and the Mixed Reality experience, participants are not only supporting innovation and progress but also embodying the core values that PASTECHL stands for knowledge, empathy, and human connection through technology.
