Sustainable Switzerland Forum

Driving Change. Creating Impact.

2 September 2025, BERNEXPO

The Forum is the sustainability conference for Swiss business, science and politics. Together we can achieve the transformation.

Focus Topics

At the fourth edition of the Sustainable Switzerland Forum, participants can choose to delve deeper into the topic of sustainability in one of three thematic streams: Circular economy, Supply chain tensions or AI & energy management. This division makes it possible to organize the morning according to individual interests and to go into more depth on one focus topics.

Circular economy

Where does the Swiss economy stand in relation to the circular economy? What strategies help to conserve resources and extend the life of products? How can companies benefit from models such as sharing, reusing, repairing and remanufacturing? Practical examples and panel discussions will provide insights into forward-looking solutions and invite you to join in the thinking and discussion.

Supply chain tensions

How do developments in international trade affect the regulation of sustainability and supply chains? What role do EU regulations play for Swiss companies and who is the driving force behind sustainable products - the companies, the customers or the legislators? The focus topic of supply chains explores how companies can successfully build sustainable supply chains — from procurement through to communication.

AI & energy management

Artificial intelligence offers new opportunities to accelerate sustainability. At the same time, data-intensive AI applications are increasing energy consumption. How can this trade-off be resolved? What is the right balance between efficiency and resource consumption? Practical examples and expert discussions will highlight the opportunities, challenges and solutions for the sustainable use of AI in the energy industry.

Es gibt zahlreiche Regionen, die logistisch unterversorgt sind – sei es wegen ihrer Lage oder ihrer schlechten Infrastruktur. Da bleibt oft nur die Logistik per Helikopter, was teuer ist. Dufour Aerospace schliesst diese Lücke: Mit Drohnen, die nicht nur die Versorgung verbessern, sondern auch geringere Kosten verursachen. 👉 Lesen Sie das ganze Porträt mit Sascha Hardegger, Thomas Pfammatter, Jasmine Kent und Dominique Steffen: https://lnkd.in/eDnJGMAq 𝘐𝘯 𝘥𝘦𝘳 𝘚𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘦 «𝘚𝘶𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘚𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘶𝘱𝘴» 𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘯 𝘸𝘪𝘳 𝘫𝘶𝘯𝘨𝘦 𝘚𝘤𝘩𝘸𝘦𝘪𝘻𝘦𝘳 𝘜𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘯𝘦𝘩𝘮𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘯𝘦𝘯 𝘶𝘯𝘥 𝘜𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘯𝘦𝘩𝘮𝘦𝘳, 𝘥𝘪𝘦 𝘮𝘪𝘵 𝘪𝘯𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘐𝘥𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘶𝘯𝘥 𝘝𝘪𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘯 𝘥𝘪𝘦 𝘯𝘢𝘤𝘩𝘩𝘢𝘭𝘵𝘪𝘨𝘦 𝘡𝘶𝘬𝘶𝘯𝘧𝘵 𝘨𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘭𝘵𝘦𝘯.Show more

📢 Forschung trifft Praxis: Kreislaufwirtschaft in der Schweiz – wo stehen wir wirklich? Die Schweiz verfügt als wahrscheinlich eines der ersten Länder weltweit über ein repräsentatives und differenziertes Bild der Verbreitung zirkulärer Aktivitäten in Unternehmen. Möglich macht das eine wegweisende Studie der Berner Fachhochschule BFH mit Tobias Stucki und der KOF Konjunkturforschungsstelle der ETH Zürich, basierend auf der zweiten Befragung von 10’000 Unternehmen. Am NZZ Sustainable Switzerland Forum am 2. September 2025 präsentiert Prof. Dr. Martin Wörter, Leiter des Bereichs Innovationsökonomik an der KOF ETH Zürich, zentrale Erkenntnisse aus dieser Erhebung: 📊 Die Ergebnisse zeigen: Nur 10 % der Unternehmen setzen bereits substanziell zirkuläre Massnahmen um. Was bedeutet das für Ihre Branche? Welche Hebel gibt es für mehr Ressourcenschonung und Wettbewerbsfähigkeit durch zirkuläre Modelle? 👉 Diskutieren Sie mit – und erhalten Sie wissenschaftlich fundierte Impulse zur nachhaltigen Transformation Ihrer Organisation.
