The Trust & Finance Forum 2025 is happening tomorrow! 🔐💰 At a time when trust, finance, and emerging technologies are deeply intertwined, this forum comes at a critical moment for the sector. As geopolitical dynamics shift and regulatory frameworks evolve, businesses are facing growing uncertainty.

We will also explore how advances in artificial intelligence are reshaping financial services, from operations to customer engagement, and redefining what trust means in an increasingly automated world.

🇨🇭 ⏩ PME et numérique : s'adapter ou disparaître, c’était au Forum FORWARD.  Jeudi dernier, plus de 450 participants se sont réunis au SwissTech Convention Center de l'EPFL pour le Forum FORWARD, organisé par Le Temps. La discussion de 3 licornes suisses, Nexthink avec Patrick Hertzog, Sonar avec Olivier Gaudin et CloudBees avec Sacha Labourey, a mis en lumière des parcours d’entrepreneurs très différents notamment sur l’intégration ou pas d’investisseurs au début de l’aventure. Évidemment, l’impact de l’IA et des cyberattaques sur les entreprises a été décortiqué notamment avec Paula Reichenberg de NEUR.ON, entreprise alumini du T4SMEs, Cedric Moret, CEO de ELCA Group, entreprise fondatrice de la Trust Valley et Catherine Pugin, déléguée du numérique au Canton de Vaud. La souveraineté numérique a été abordée avec Marc Oehler, CEO de infomaniak | The Ethical Cloud et l’intégration de la blockchain avec Vincent Pignon, Ph.D de Wecan Group, en passant par l’évolution du dialogue homme-machine avec l’excellent Professeur Rachid Guerraoui de l'EPFL et bien d’autres encore. Le défi 2025 ? Trouver des solutions concrètes et se transformer en profondeur pour les PMEs qui sont exposées, pour la 1ère fois, à des enjeux géopolitiques auparavant absents des cartes de risques. Et justement, la région a un programme subventionné qui recrute des PMEs pour sa 4e édition, Lennig Pedron a eu la chance de pouvoir en parler sur scène avec Anouch Seydtaghia. La Trust Valley avec le soutien de ses partenaires publics et privés tels que l'Etat de Vaud et 49 partenaires privés participent à transformer les PMEs suisses grâce à ce programme de confiance numérique et de soutien en cybersécurité : https://lnkd.in/gN-3DPsc (places encore disponibles). Les efforts impulsés par ce partenariat public-privé prennent encore plus de sens dans une période mouvementée comme celle décrite sur la scène de FORWARD et que nous vivons toutes et tous. BRAVO aux organisateurs, aux intervenants et à tous les participants pour cette journée forte à laquelle nous étions heureux d’apporter notre pierre à l’édifice. Continuons à innover et à collaborer pour renforcer notre tissu économique !
