Suisse Public
Suisse Public: The Central Meeting Point for the Modern Public Sector
Suisse Public is widely regarded as one of the most important trade fairs for the public sector in Switzerland. Held biennially in Bern and organised by Bernexpo AG, the event is open exclusively to industry professionals and serves as a focused platform for exchange, innovation, and procurement. From the first moments on site, it becomes clear that Suisse Public is not a general exhibition, but a highly targeted meeting place where public-sector challenges meet practical, market-ready solutions.
Taking place across both the indoor exhibition halls and the extensive outdoor area of BERNEXPO, the fair offers a comprehensive overview of products, services, and systems relevant to municipalities, public authorities, and government-related organisations. Experts, decision-makers, and procurement officers use the event to evaluate solutions, compare providers, and engage directly with key suppliers who understand the specific demands of public-sector operations.
Rather than concentrating on a single discipline, Suisse Public reflects the diversity and complexity of modern public services. It creates a setting where operational efficiency, safety, sustainability, and digital transformation are discussed side by side.
A Comprehensive Showcase for Public-Sector Operations
Suisse Public covers a broad spectrum of application areas that are essential to the functioning of cities, communities, and public institutions. The exhibition highlights technologies and services that support everyday municipal work as well as emergency response and long-term infrastructure planning.
A major focus lies on vehicles and machinery designed for public use. These solutions are presented not only as standalone products but as part of integrated operational concepts tailored to real working conditions. Visitors can explore equipment in action, particularly in the outdoor exhibition areas, which adds a practical dimension rarely found at indoor-only trade fairs.
Key sectors represented at the exhibition include:
Utility vehicles and municipal machinery
Cleaning vehicles and equipment for waste management
Snow clearing and winter service solutions
Green space maintenance and landscaping technologies
Firefighting, civil defense, and rescue services
Special-purpose vehicles and operational systems
Protection, safety, and rescue equipment
This wide range ensures that professionals from different departments and responsibilities find relevant content aligned with their daily work.
Infrastructure, Digitalisation, and Municipal Services
Beyond vehicles and machinery, Suisse Public addresses the structural and digital foundations of public services. Roads, traffic management, and signaling systems are key topics, reflecting the ongoing need for safe, efficient, and well-maintained transport infrastructure.
At the same time, the fair places strong emphasis on digital transformation within municipalities. Municipal IT solutions, data-driven systems, and digital procurement tools are presented as enablers of transparency, efficiency, and better service delivery. These offerings are particularly relevant for public authorities facing increasing complexity, regulatory requirements, and resource constraints.
Additional thematic areas include:
Waste disposal and recycling systems
Public-sector services and procurement solutions
Sports, leisure, and community infrastructure
Integrated operational planning and management tools
By combining physical infrastructure with digital and service-oriented solutions, Suisse Public presents a holistic view of how modern public administrations operate.
Suisse Public SMART: Intelligent Solutions for the Public Sector
An important pillar of the event is the Suisse Public SMART conference, which takes place alongside the exhibition. This conference focuses on intelligent, future-oriented solutions for the public sector, addressing topics such as smart infrastructure, digital services, and sustainable operations.
The conference format encourages dialogue rather than one-way communication. Experts share case studies, discuss best practices, and explore how innovation can be implemented realistically within public budgets and regulatory frameworks. This makes Suisse Public SMART particularly valuable for decision-makers seeking proven concepts rather than theoretical visions.
Connecting Strategy and Practice
What distinguishes the conference is its close connection to the exhibition. Visitors can move directly from strategic discussions to concrete solutions on the show floor, creating a strong link between ideas and implementation.
A Holistic View on Safety and Employee Well-Being
Suisse Public also recognises that public-sector performance depends not only on technology but on people. Occupational safety, health protection, and employee well-being are addressed as integral components of effective public services.
Exhibitors and discussions highlight how safe equipment, ergonomic systems, and supportive working environments contribute to long-term efficiency and resilience. This human-centered perspective reinforces the fair’s holistic approach and resonates strongly with organisations responsible for large and diverse workforces.
Why Suisse Public Remains a Key Industry Event
In an environment where public authorities face rising expectations and increasing complexity, Suisse Public offers clarity and orientation. It provides professionals with access to current market offerings, emerging trends, and practical solutions tailored to public-sector realities.
More than just a product showcase, the fair functions as a platform for idea exchange and collaboration. It brings together suppliers and decision-makers, encourages dialogue across disciplines, and supports innovation in public services. For anyone involved in planning, operating, or supplying the public sector, Suisse Public remains a pivotal event that reflects both today’s needs and tomorrow’s challenges.
