Life Science Zurich Impact - Data for Health is a one-day multi-track meeting that provides a platform for scientists from academia and industry to present their projects to potential collaborators and investors thus stimulating a dialogue between research, healthcare and economy with a focus on translational medicine. 

This event is jointly organised by Life Science Zurich Business Network, the Business and Economic Development division of Kanton Zürich, Bio-Technopark Schlieren-Zurich & supported by Innosuisse.

For its second call, Innosuisse has chosen one topic that takes into account the impact of climate change and environmental pollution on the economy and society, with their damaging effects on health and prosperity.

The topic for the call 2023 therefore is:

Disruptive solutions for the transition towards a Net Zero World

Focus areas:

1.New materials and processes
2.Energy storage, generation and real-time management
3.Eco-Design, circular economy and sustainable manufacturing
4.Energy efficiency and reduction of emissions

The first DUT call opens on 21 September and supports transnational research and/or innovation projects addressing urban challenges to help cities in their transition towards a more sustainable economy and functioning. The challenges are grouped into three themes called Transition Pathways: Positive Energy Districts (PED), the 15-Minute City (15mC) and Circular Urban Economies (CUE).
