#SUD24 in a nutshell
On 30 May 2024, a total of 1,300 participants gathered at the national networking and business event in Switzerland. This gathering sought to facilitate interactions among startups, investors, corporates, and SMEs, offering them the opportunity to acquire knowledge, establish connections, and address prevailing industry challenges.
Attendees customized their conference experience by selecting from a diverse array of over 50 sessions and gaining insights from more than 140 speakers. Furthermore, the event facilitated over 750 pre-arranged 1:1 meetings and hosted a marketplace with over 30 exhibitors, thereby fostering additional avenues for support and collaboration.This year, we had some exciting highlights: Renowned AI expert Stuart Russell kicked off the event in the morning. Federal Council Guy Parmelin joined for a roundtable. For the first time, participants could join two extra stages in the exhibition: Unplugged and AI Stage. Additionally, the Collective community gathered for the first time with its own insightful program of AI and innovation experts a day before.
