    Innovation and networking in the Swiss electrical industry

    The newly launched ineltec 2024 offers a platform for over 140 exhibitors to showcase their latest products and services in the fields of electrical engineering, building automation, e-mobility and more across 11,000 square metres of exhibition space. The trade fair not only attracts a large number of experts, but also decision-makers from the entire industry who are looking for innovative solutions and sustainable technologies. The topics of e-mobility and smart building technologies are a particular focus, as these areas are expected to undergo decisive developments in the coming years.

    Interactive platforms for professional dialogue
    In addition to the traditional trade fair experience, ineltec reloaded also offers digital access via its content platform ineltec.ch, where exhibitors and visitors can network and gather information in advance. In addition, the two marketplaces with bistros and an interaction zone ensure a lively exchange and offer space for daily events such as innovation pitches and moderated discussions. These formats are designed to provide participants with new ideas and practical knowledge for their day-to-day work.

    Focus on young talent and networking
    Another focus of ineltec 2024 is the promotion of young talent and networking among industry participants. The events, such as the start-up pitches and after-work events, not only provide a platform for new ideas, but also offer valuable networking opportunities. The aim is to build a bridge between established companies and innovative start-ups and at the same time actively involve young talent in the industry.

    Future-oriented discussions and further training
    ineltec 2024 also places a strong focus on further training and discussions on key industry topics such as the integration of AI in building automation and the impact of ESG directives on electrical engineering. By participating in these round tables and presentations, trade visitors will gain valuable insights into the future development of the electrical industry and can thus prepare themselves for the challenges ahead.

    Ineltec 2024 promises to be an unmissable event for all electrical industry professionals, providing not only a showcase for technological innovations, but also a central platform for professional exchange and training.

  • Shaping Zurich’s future: First location day sets new accents

    Shaping Zurich’s future: First location day sets new accents

    On “Location Day”, an initiative of the Zurich Department of Economic Affairs, leading figures from business, science and the Zurich government came together to formulate joint visions for the future direction of Zurich as a business location. The aim of the event was to identify innovative ideas and measures through constructive dialogue in order to strengthen Zurich as a business location in the long term.

    The discussions focussed on the canton’s core strengths, such as its dynamic entrepreneurial landscape, cutting-edge research and education as well as its high-quality infrastructure. In a series of panels and workshops, topics such as technology, skills shortages, business development, mobility and sustainability were explored in greater depth. The workshops generated a large number of proposals that are now to be developed further in order to realise practical solutions for Zurich as a business location.

    A study on the attractiveness of the Canton of Zurich as a business location, prepared especially for the “Location Day”, served as a basis for discussion. It analysed key factors influencing the business location and identified both the canton’s strengths and areas with potential for improvement. Based on these findings, the participants were able to address specific areas requiring action and channel them into productive channels.

    Due to the positive response and the recognisable need for ongoing exchange between the various sectors, the Department of Economic Affairs has already announced that it will establish the “Location Day” as an annual event. This emphasises the Canton of Zurich’s commitment to further positioning and strengthening itself as an innovative and future-oriented business location.

  • Face to face: Construction industry in Switzerland

    Face to face: Construction industry in Switzerland

    Swissbau will take place from 16 to 19 January 2024 in the halls of Messe Basel, which will offer 85,000 square metres of exhibition space this year. In contrast to the special edition in 2022, which was restricted due to the pandemic, the 2024 trade fair will be presented in its entirety. With comprehensive subject areas such as shell construction, building envelopes, building technology and interior fittings, the extensive expertise of the Swiss planning, construction and property industry will be brought together in one place.

    The trade fair offers a unique platform for personal dialogue and experiencing products and solutions. Events such as Swissbau Focus, Swissbau Lab, Trendworld Bathroom and Swissbau Inside take centre stage and enable participants to obtain information efficiently and holistically. Swissbau 2024 emphasises the importance of personal exchange, with Rudolf Pfander, Brand Director Swissbau, highlighting the trade fair as a central location for gathering knowledge and exchanging ideas.

    The Swissbau City concept divides the trade fair into various neighbourhoods and central marketplaces that focus on the main thematic areas. The Bathroom Trend World, an integral part of the trade fair, presents the latest products and designs for bathrooms in Hall 2.2. Swissbau Inside provides a platform for interior design products, while the special show “Handwerk live” in Hall 1.0 offers insights into the everyday work of craftsmen and women.

    In addition, the Security Congress, which focuses on security endeavours in the professional environment, will take place in the Congress Center Basel at the same time as the trade fair. Overall, Swissbau 2024 promises to be a holistic trade fair experience and a central platform for professionals from the construction and real estate sectors to jointly tackle the current challenges facing the industry, such as the circular economy, digitalisation and climate change.
