On November 19 and 20, 2026, Basel Area Business & Innovation, in partnership with Haute École Arc (HE-Arc), is organizing a training session focused on industrial cybersecurity and compliance with the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) at the Switzerland Innovation Park Basel Area – Jura Campus in Courroux. Offered as part of the InnoJura Academy program, this intensive two-day training course aims to help industrial companies understand the new European regulatory requirements and integrate them into their product development and management processes.
Cyber Resilience Act: The Future of Industry 4.0, Between Risk Management and Regulatory Compliance
In light of evolving cyber threats and the strengthening of the European regulatory framework, cybersecurity is becoming a critical issue for companies that develop, market, or operate industrial solutions. This training course will focus in particular on the implications of the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and the Machinery Regulation (EU) 2023/1230, two pieces of legislation that strengthen the requirements applicable to the safety of products and equipment. Combining theoretical concepts, case studies, and practical tools, the program will enable participants to familiarize themselves with key regulatory obligations, identify cybersecurity risks, understand applicable standards, and explore the steps necessary to achieve compliance.
For industrial SMEs in French-speaking Switzerland, this training program offers an opportunity to anticipate the practical implications of European regulations on their operations, particularly when they are developing products or solutions intended for the European Union market. Beyond compliance, the challenge lies in integrating cybersecurity from the product design stage, strengthening risk management, and maintaining access to the European market.
