Swiss Impact Forum 2025: Revolutionizing R&D with Interactive Data and Automation

On November 12, 2025, the Swiss Impact Forum 2025 will take place at Eventfabrik Bern, Switzerland. The event, supported by B Lab Switzerland, aims to bring together business leaders, sustainability experts, political decision-makers, academics, and entrepreneurs. The main focus is to explore how interactive data exploration, automation, robotics, and education can overcome the instinctive approach of 'low-dimensional foraging' in research and development.

The interactive session will feature live demonstrations, engaging polls, and a closing Q&A session. Dennis Lendrem, a British scientist, statistician, and author with over 40 years of experience, will discuss the real-world pitfalls of traditional experimentation. Lendrem's books, 'Apes in Lab Coats' and 'Gorillas in Suits', offer valuable insights into the cultural and organisational dynamics of scientists and R&D management.

JMP system engineers, including Ben Barroso-Ingham, will demonstrate how Design of Experiments (DOE) can reveal patterns missed by trial-and-error. This approach helps organisations innovate more effectively. Owen Jonathan, a Senior Associate Systems Engineer for JMP Statistical Discovery, will guide customers in adopting data-driven solutions for their organisations. The session will also introduce Bayesian Optimisation, an emerging approach that guides experimenters to explore complex spaces more efficiently.

The Swiss Impact Forum 2025 promises to be an engaging and informative event. With its focus on interactive data exploration and efficient experimentation, it aims to equip attendees with tools to overcome traditional research and development challenges. The event is expected to foster innovative thinking and collaboration among its diverse audience.
