syntezia open 2024
Our eco-responsible open lab open all year round
The 2024 edition of syntezia open , our eco-responsible event format, will take place among the 400 cities participating in EMDInMyCountry (European Maritime Day).
Our idea box is open all year round!
April 17-21, 2024 in Geneva inside Palexpo during the Geneva International Exhibition of Inventions , we will present our eco-challenges of this year, our project teams and we will give the audience some tips for creating and navigating the innovative ecosystems .
We will propose several eco-challenges and will listen to your issues around the “water” resource.
Among the themes we are ready to address:
How to involve the “Fabulous 50” generation in the ecological transition?
We will also address the subject of heat islands in industrial zones and mobility as a service to find concrete solutions.
We will also discuss the subject of heat islands urban (ICU) and on the importance of hedges for the protection of biodiversity .
(see recent EPFL research on the impact of heat islands on health ) .
More than 1,000 inventions from nearly 40 countries will be on display at the Geneva International Exhibition of Inventions, at Palexpo. You will have the opportunity to meet the inventors behind these creations and exchange ideas with experts from various fields.
Thematic workshops on the different stages of creating an invention or innovation will be offered to you. All phases to go from concept to realization will be covered!

#InnovationPapers
A co-created publication opportunity to seize!
Do you want to express yourself on the blue economy, do you like fiction or science fiction, do you want to be part of the co-creation of a prospective story for a desirable and sustainable future?
This is what we suggest you do!
How ?
By submitting your content to us (text, photos, illustrations).
Between 20,000 and 30,000 characters in French or English per article on the circular economy (around 10 pages), this is what we offer you: short, effective and concise!!!
On the sidelines of the open lab day, we are also launching a call for research and innovation papers.
We therefore invite those who wish to send us their 10-page document, with:
- Your keywords at the top of the article

- Your development
- A concluding paragraph
If you want to attach photos, graphics or illustrations, you can insert them in the article and as attachments with good resolution and readability.
The works and articles cited in your document must be referenced at the end of your article.
Submitted articles will be reviewed by the Syntezia Open scientific committee and submitted to a second peer review by a publishing house.
Please submit your documents by email to Yves Zieba (yves.zieba@syntezia.com).
Co-creation workshops focused on creative writing and design fiction
With the help of our facilitators, you come with a multitude of ideas, you enrich them by providing methods and tools (symbiotic economy, design fiction, experimentation, writing workshop) and you leave with a project, a team, a document and many pragmatic lessons to succeed in your project.
