Integrating an ecosystem

Companies engaged in sustainability programs

The EPFL Innovation Park is an Ecosystem Partner of the Swiss Triple Impact program, developed by B Lab Switzerland and supported by the Swiss Confederation. This program helps our companies to measure their contributions to the U.N. Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), identify areas for improvement, open up new business opportunities and stimulate positive -impact innovation. Workshops dedicated to the companies of the Park take place on site on a regular basis.

After participating in a Swiss Triple Impact introductory workshop at the EPFL Innovation Park, companies on site can benefit from additional tailor-made workshops in groups of three or four aiding them to foster synergies to create mutual value. Consequently, they can set ambitious goals and work towards the most impactful SDGs for each of their individual business models.
