Organised by Switzerland Global Enterprise, this fact finding mission will take place from 27 to 29 March 2023 in New York and will focus on three clusters: smart electricity networks, smart buildings and smart mobility.

A rapidly growing population comes with an increase in energy consumption and carbon which is why NYC has enacted one of the world’s most stringent climate laws. The NYC Climate Mobilization Act (CMA), otherwise known as NYC’s Green New Deal, was passed by the New York City Council in 2019 to put NYC on the path to reducing building carbon emissions by 40% by 2030 and by 80% by 2050. 

Smart and sustainable buildings are crucial to reduce New York’s carbon footprint. Similarly, smart mobility solutions are key to decarbonizing New York’s transportation system.

The goal of this fact finding mission is to

• provide Swiss companies with an understanding of New York’s smart city ecosystem in the three clusters (smart grids, smart buildings, smart mobility).
• connect Swiss companies with partners, peers, pilot programs and potential customers.
