CSEM's flagship bioconvergence event, on 15 September 2026 at blue Cinema Abaton in Zurich. Themed from point-of-care to on-body intelligence, the program covers point-of-care diagnostics, multi-omics, microneedle-based sensing, and clinical-grade wearables, with speakers from Roche, AWS, Xsensio, and CSEM spin-offs. Tickets CHF 150.

GenAI Engineers is a new hands-on format, an evening for practitioners who build with generative AI, not only talk about it. Every edition follows the same shape: one sharp keynote, a real Q&A, then a working block where you actually build something. This first edition is hosted at DARE Campus, one of Zurich's leading hubs for deep tech, AI, robotics and applied research. Doors open at 18:00 with tea and coffee, the keynote and Q&A run from 18:30, the hands-on session starts at 19:00, and open networking with snacks and drinks follows at 20:00 before a 21:00 close. The hands-on session has no workshop script and no fixed track: open your laptop and work on something real, whether that is a prototype you have not had a quiet evening for, an agent that keeps misbehaving, an eval you cannot get to pass, or a paper you want to reimplement. Nobody has to present anything. It is aimed at engineers, ML and data practitioners, technical founders and researchers who build and ship generative AI in production. Places are limited and every registration is reviewed.
