The concept

Already 10 years of Networking!
 

LEC (L'Événement Connecté) is born of the merger of eCom | Swiss IT Business | SMARC | Retail-Expo.
 

A bit of history

Created in 2011 under the name of eCom, the show has grown in just a few years from 30 to 210 exhibitors. The event is based on a fair / conference concept and offers to trade visitors a rich and varied programme: the most important in French-speaking Switzerland and since 2018 in the whole of Switzerland in the fields of digital and IT.
 

Positioning

An event organised around 9 major thematic forums : connecting companies, services, departments, sales and communication channels, customers, solutions ...
 

Ambitions

To offer Swiss decision-makers, in one place, all the wealth of solutions and services that can meet their needs and strategic challenges; whether they are technological, IT, sales or marketing.
 

Hybrid

In 2021, the event goes to a hybrid model with a virtual edition (online conferences and private Visio meetings) and a 'physical' edition in palexpo Geneva.  A unique model in Switzerland!
