The Geneva Solution Space, previously the SDG Solution Space, was established in 2017 at Campus Biotech Innovation Park to host the world's first comprehensive education programme on the Sustainable Development Goals.
The Geneva Solution Space is currently a community headquarters for the Road to Geneva, supporting International Geneva in preparations for the 2027 Geneva AI Summit.
How to join the space
The organizations listed below are partners of the Geneva Solution Space in 2026, most of them renting desks in our 7th floor co-working space. Together, they contribute to a vibrant ecosystem within the Campus Biotech Innovation Park.
If you are an international NGO, association or start-up working in the areas of human development and sustainability, and are interested to join, please contact us.
Events
We host courses, workshops, hackathons, and aperitifs — join one or get in touch to plan your own.
What you can do here
The 330m² ground-floor space can be configured as a lecture room, a space for team-based project work, or a convivial meeting area. It also contains a 40m² kitchen, 60m² Fab Lab and 5m² Zoom Room.
Six formats we host most often.
01Movable furniture, power everywhere, a kitchen and chill-out corner, a pitching area and prototyping tools in the Fab Lab. Example: hackademIA, a recurring student-driven hackathon with AI challenges set by International Organizations and NGOs, and the hackathons we host during the Open Geneva festival.
02University graduate courses, UN training sessions, high-school outings. The space and other rooms in the building can accommodate break-out activities. Facilitation partners available if you need help running your event.
03The unique casual lab vibe, at the core of a building full of high-tech startups and globally active NGOs, contrasts with formal UN conference rooms, dull university auditoria and shiny corporate meeting spaces.
04Street-level entrance, space for 90 people standing, a beautiful rooftop terrace for the after-party, and a local audience of thousands of researchers and innovators from Campus Biotech.
05Seats 60 facing a projection wall, with AV facilities for hybrid meetings and a convenient kitchen area for coffee breaks. Works for a 1–2 hour format or a multi-day conference.
06The Fab Lab can be booked on its own, by the hour or the day, with partner AddictLab available to introduce your group to the machines.
Location
The Geneva Solution Space is across the street from the WTO, WMO and UNHCR. It's a short walk from Lake Geneva and from the Palace of Nations, the UN's Geneva Headquarters, as well as the International Committee of the Red Cross and its museum. Geneva's train station is 5min away by tram, and the airport is 15min by taxi.
