The Lake Geneva Innovation Society fosters privileged collaborations between academics at the regions leading universities and institutes and members of the private sector. It does this by promoting closer contacts between academic researchers and Swiss and foreign industrialists. Over the past two years, the annual dinner has focused on the regions strengths in the life sciences, namely the disciplines of genetics and molecular biology, bioengineering, oncology, bioinformatics, neurosciences and clinical research. It is planned that future events will also address the region’s considerable competencies in nanotechnology, physics, chemistry, psychology, linguistics as well as other key capabilities that the regions’s scientific and research institutions have to offer.

Past dinners of the Lake Geneva Innovation Society have been attended by leading academic researchers, industry representatives and decision makers, venture capitalists, bankers and other professionals from the public and private sectors.

Currently, on an annual basis. It is planned to build on the success of this event by holding further similar dinners throughout the year with different technology and research themes reflecting the competencies of the region’s academic research institutes.
