Swiss Digital Conference 2026
On Thursday, January 29, 2026, the Swiss Digital Center will host the 20th edition of the Swiss Digital Conference, a half-day event dedicated to the digital transformation of SMEs and organizations. This event will feature practical case studies, testimonials from business leaders, and concrete feedback to make digitalization accessible and operational.
Digital transformation: tools, feedback, and strategies for SMEs in French-speaking Switzerland
This year's conference will focus on optimizing business efficiency through digital tools, with a pragmatic approach designed to overcome preconceived notions that often make digitization seem like an abstract, costly, or difficult concept to implement.
After starting the morning with two keynotes introducing tools and skills, several targeted presentations will allow participants to review concrete examples of digitalization, including:
- ISICS – the "made in Valais" ERP for SMEs with Gautier Moulin, founder of ISICS, and a guest SME
- From data to decision: predict, understand, and act with Garance Selosse, Data Engineer & AI Consultant at Synchrotech, and François Buchard, CEO of Buchard Voyages
- Cybersecurity in SMEs: an essential daily challenge
The conference will conclude with a round table discussion dedicated to artificial intelligence for SMEs, moderated by Silvia Quarteroni (Swiss Data Science Center).
Practical demonstration & AI trends for 2026
Among the key events not to be missed on the Alp ICT YouTube channel in 2025, a #TechDemo & a #TechTalk particularly echo the topics that will be discussed on January 29.
So, while you wait to visit us in Valais, why not discover Synchrotech and its intelligent, automated data management solution? A platform for configuring and visualizing your company data that will enable you to collect, measure, and standardize its use.
Continue with three perspectives and three areas of expertise that intersect to build a joint initiative and bring to fruition concrete prospects for innovation, directly linked to the digital transformation of Swiss SMEs and driven by artificial intelligence technologies. Together, Alexandre Caboussat, Associate Professor and Head of Continuing Education at HEG Geneva, Jean Meneveau, Managing Partner at Colombus Consulting, and Yvan Cognasse, Senior Director at Oracle, have launched the Data & AI Observatory.
The idea is simple, but no less innovative. In contrast to globalized studies and analyses, this observatory seeks to provide a local frame of reference, rooted in the realities of Swiss companies, to shed light on their maturity, opportunities, and challenges related to data and artificial intelligence. Launched in 2024, the trio shares the results of its second edition with us, while guiding us through a critical reading of the main lessons that can be drawn from it.
