OPEN DAYS 2023

From May 20 to 24 2023, bluefactory presents itself in all its diversity

Living the neighborhood!

At the heart of an emblematic place, the bluefactory district is dedicated to the citizens of the future. Through its urban integration, the low-carbon innovation hub enjoys a programmatic mix that is unique in Switzerland.

From 20 to 24 May 2023, bluefactory is showcasing its diversity: doors will be opened to the public giving visibility to constantly expanding activities in this neighborhood and allowing visitors an overview of current practices and future projects.

After a first experience in 2022, the OPEN DAYS will begin this year on the weekend of May 20/21 with the PASSAGE festival of the cultural organization Point76 – one of the actors of the innovation district – and will continue over 3 days of the week with a parcours of specific moments of presentations in the various laboratories, organizations and companies on site.
