2020 retrospective
The year 2020 was marked by a pandemic that disrupted everyone’s daily life. During the initial lock- down, bringing together hundreds of companies and thousands of visitors in one place seemed completely unimaginable. However, with creativity and perseverance, the Forum EPFL adapted to this unprecedented situation.
In 2020, with the implementation of necessary sanitary measures, the organization of the Forum EPFL was revisited to ensure the safety of all. This innovative format of the Forum EPFL was still a success.
Thanks to this edition, the Forum EPFL has now acquired the experience to make its 39th edition a success in all circumstances.
