Basel, September 4, 2025 – World of Data (WoD) is just around the corner: on September 18, one of the leading events for Data, Analytics & AI comes to Basel. When it comes to data, it’s not about buzzwords – it’s about results. That’s exactly what WoD delivers: companies such as Roche, AXA, Pilatus, PostFinance, Swisscom, and Swiss Post will provide exclusive insights into their projects. With 25 presentations, a partner exhibition, and an interactive “Thesis Arena,” attendees will experience the full spectrum of Data, Analytics & AI.
The event kicks off with a powerful statement from WWF Switzerland: in the Opening Keynote, Franziska Tiefenauer and Michael Wolf will show how data analytics is being used in the fight against climate change and biodiversity loss. In the afternoon, extreme mountaineer Dani Arnold will inspire the audience with a unique perspective: what do extreme alpine challenges have in common with data-driven projects?
From building a sustainable data culture at Swiss Post, to Data Mesh at AXA, to “Social Data Engineering” at Pilatus – the presentations and case studies at this year’s WoD are as diverse as they are hands-on. Another highlight is the Thesis Arena in the afternoon, where current trends and controversial questions around Data & AI will be debated live on stage.
“World of Data is deliberately not a large, anonymous trade show, but an event with a personal atmosphere. For us, it’s important to create a space where people can truly connect, share ideas, and build real partnerships,” says Klaus Blaschek, founder and managing director of b.telligent, organizer of WoD.
AWS, Microsoft, Snowflake, Veezoo, and other technology partners will showcase their solutions in the accompanying exhibition. In the evening, the event will wind down with live music and a shared dinner in a relaxed atmosphere – the perfect opportunity to make new connections or deepen existing ones.
