The startup selection process for 2026 is complete, and the final programme is ready! The Energy Startup Day will again take place together with Electrosuisse as "Energiezukunft meets Energy Startup Day," giving it even greater reach within the energy community. Just as the Energy Startup Day always promotes collaboration between startups and industry, we're also seeking meaningful collaborations of our own to make energy startups even more visible.

The Energy Startup Day is Switzerland's most important event for connecting startups and innovators with authorities, corporates, and investors. We showcase the most promising solutions aiming to increase energy efficiency, decarbonize industry, and drive forward the energy transformation through digitalization and artificial intelligence. The programme is packed with expert inputs, pitches, networking opportunities, and a startup exhibition. The main event language is German, though some pitches and talks may be held in English.

For the startup selection, we were supported by our excellent jury:

Georg Schumacher (Axpo), David Galeuchet (Electrosuisse), Matthias Egli (Swissolar), Melanie Binggeli (Startup Campus, ZHAW) , Christina Marchand (ZHAW), Luise Letzner (Energy & Innovation Expert), Viola Bhattarai (SICTIC) and Michael Müller (EBP).

See you soon on November 19 at the  Kultur & Kongresshaus Aarau.
