The ambition for the next edition is to welcome around 100 exhibitors from all over Switzerland. At the same time, the organizing committee is putting together a wide-ranging program of conferences and events aimed at both industry professionals and the general public. Here’s an overview of the program.

Looking to renovate your home? or get expert advice on building your own home? install solar panels? or choosing quality insulation materials for your future apartment or home? You’ll find specialized companies among the exhibitors. Not forgetting sustainable mobility, which takes pride of place on the 3,500m2 exterior of the building. Anyone can try out electric or hybrid cars.

🎤💡 What innovations to accelerate the energy transition?

We’re delighted to be hosting one of the program’s conferences, to be held on Friday April 19 from 10am to 12:35pm:

For decades, Switzerland has been committed to environmental protection, renewable energy production and, more recently, climate protection. Innovation naturally plays a central role in achieving these objectives. However, innovation is not only technological, it is also behavioral, structural, commercial (business models) and regulatory. Any change requires public support. The key today lies in understanding behavior, the real driving force behind this change. This takes time, requires communication efforts and also means recognizing that solutions don’t just come from schools and research institutes, but also from SMEs and citizens. Inclusive innovation is the key to progress!
