NEST celebrates its first birthday

NEST officially opened just over a year ago - and a great deal has happened since. At the partner event on 22 June 2017, the NEST network partners - which now number over 100 companies and research as well as public institutions - took a look back at the past year and toured the NEST construction sites currently underway. NEST is now definitively a "living lab": not only are the existing offices and residential spaces occupied in the Meet2Create and Vision Wood units, but numerous visitors stream into NEST every day for tours, events, meetings or workshops. "Over 10,000 people visited the NEST in the last 13 months," said Empa's Deputy CEO, Peter Richner, in his brief retrospective at the event. More than 120 events were organized by the NEST partners. A tour of the building showed the partners the latest developments. At the construction site for the Solar Fitness & Wellness unit, most of the work that can be seen from the outside is complete.
