“Fantastic Minds” Returns to Vasil Levski Sofia Airport
For the third consecutive year, Vasil Levski Sofia Airport becomes a stage for knowledge, talent, and the future by hosting the traveling exhibition “Fantastic Minds,” dedicated to the most successful Bulgarian students—medalists from international science olympiads. The project honors young people who, with dedication, talent, and high achievements, represent Bulgaria on the global scientific stage.
The exhibition is a special edition of the “My Awakening Mentors” project by FANTASTICO Group and is organized in collaboration with the Association of National Teams in Science Olympiads. The official opening gathered representatives from institutions and organizations supporting the development of young talents: Jesús Caballero, CEO of SOF Connect; Svetoslav Gavrilov, Chief Commercial Officer of FANTASTICO; Elena Marinova, Board Member; Vulkan Goranov, Executive Director of the Association; and Alexander Gatev, gold medalist at international informatics olympiads.
The event was also attended by other Olympians, team leaders, and teachers, whose dedication, expertise, and years of work underpin these remarkable achievements and international distinctions.
“These young Bulgarian talents are a true source of national pride. Through their achievements, they inspire, give hope, and showcase the best face of Bulgaria to the world. It is incredibly exciting for Vasil Levski Sofia Airport to once again become a stage where we celebrate the future and give deserved recognition to these fantastic minds,” said Jesús Caballero, CEO of SOF Connect.
The exhibition can be viewed at Terminal 2 until mid-January 2026. Thanks to the hundreds of thousands of passengers passing through the airport, the achievements of young Bulgarian students reach a broad international audience, positioning Bulgaria as a country of knowledge and talent.
