FoodHack Zürich: Soybeans - One Ingredient, Countless Forms

NOV11
18:30 · Europe / Zurich

About this event

We meet again! This time, to discuss the humble soybean.
Soybeans - One Ingredient, Countless Forms 🌱
Every day, we cross paths with soybeans in ways we rarely notice.
Have you ever stopped to think about how many forms a soybean can take? Tofu, tempeh, soy sauce, meat and seafood analogs - the list goes on.
This humble legume carries a deep cultural history and has been transformed into an incredible range of products. As the crop makes further inroads into European diets, we're eager to explore soy's cultural relevance, consumer opinion, its transformation potential into a range of products, and how our relationship with this ingredient might evolve.
Join us for an evening exploring soybeans with food scientists, product developers, and people who just love to eat! More details on exact topics and speakers to follow.
This event is free, but registration is required. Sign up early to secure your spot.

Our Minds Under Siege

ETH AI Center, Zürich, Switzerland
In person

Our Minds Under Siege A conversation on AI, information, trust and the future of human judgment Artificial intelligence is transforming how we search, read, decide and form opinions. As AI systems become increasingly capable of generating persuasive text, images and videos, distinguishing truth from manipulation becomes more difficult—and more important. Join us for an evening with writer and former TED curator Bruno Giussani to discuss one of the defining challenges of the AI era: how to preserve human judgment in a world shaped by algorithms. The conversation will explore the forces that influence what we see and believe, the changing relationship between humans and intelligent machines, and what it takes to remain informed, critical and autonomous in the age of AI. Featuring Bruno Giussani, writer and former Global Curator of TED Prof. Emily Cross, ETH Zurich Moderated by Dr. Chris Luebkeman, ETH Zurich 📅 21 October 2026 🕕 18:15 📍 ETH AI Center, OAT Andreasstrasse 5, 8050 Zurich (14th Floor) About Bruno Giussani Bruno Giussani is a writer and podcaster.

SBN.Lunch mit Peter Bolliger, Content Creator, Unternehmer & Abenteurer

Churrasco, Zürich, Switzerland
In person

CHASING LIMITS Liebe Freunde Ich freue mich sehr, euch zu unserem nächsten SBN.Lunch mit Peter Bolliger einzuladen. Peter ist Content Creator, Unternehmer und Abenteurer. Mit seinen Videos nimmt er seine Community mit hinter Türen, die normalerweise verschlossen bleiben. Für seine Formate war er unter anderem bei der Schweizergarde im Vatikan, trainierte mit der Patrouille Suisse, begleitete Spezialkräfte und Spitzensportler und stellt sich selbst immer wieder aussergewöhnlichen Herausforderungen. Dazu gehören unter anderem ein Ironman, Wüstenmarathons und Ultratrails. Nach seiner Ausbildung zum Polymechaniker und ersten Erfahrungen im Marketing entschied Peter, seinen sicheren Karriereweg zu verlassen und seiner Leidenschaft für Videos zu folgen. Heute hat er daraus eine eigene Marke und ein Unternehmen aufgebaut. Unter dem Titel CHASING LIMITS sprechen wir mit Peter darüber, warum er immer wieder bewusst seine Komfortzone verlässt, wie aus Neugier ein Geschäftsmodell wurde und was ihn antreibt, ständig neue Grenzen zu suchen. Datum: Donnerstag, 22. Oktober 2026 Zeit: 11:45–13:30 Uhr Ort: Churrasco Steak & Nikkei Cuisine, Glockengasse 9, 8001 Zürich Preis: CHF 69.– (inkl. Vorspeise, Hauptgang, Mineral & Kaffee)
