Total Solar Eclipse Meetings
For several years, the Geneva Forum has embraced each total solar eclipse as a unique opportunity for convergence. In these rare moments when the Moon darkens the Sun, we organize high-level international gatherings around the world, in a spirit of strategic dialogue, global foresight, and collective innovation.

A Geneva Forum tradition, at the heart of global challenges
These gatherings go beyond observing the astronomical phenomenon: they become privileged moments of encounter between decision-makers, scientists, entrepreneurs, investors, political actors, artists, and members of engaged civil society.
Thanks to our partnership with the NGO Objectif Sciences International (OSI), experts in field logistics and participatory science, each edition is meticulously organized: accommodation, transport, observation infrastructure, translation, accessibility, and safety.
A rich and tailored program
According to the eclipse schedule, we design a complete program combining strategic reflection, immersive experience, and collective contemplation:
- Diplomatic roundtables on issues of climate, energy, and resource geopolitics;
- High-level private seminars on scientific and technological cooperation;
- Spaces for intergenerational and intercultural dialogue;
- Impact project pitch sessions before international investors;
- Informal gatherings immersed in nature, conducive to co-creation;
- Eclipse observation workshop, led by astrophysicists, science educators, and artists;
- Concerts, evening gatherings, artistic performances, and collective meditations under the stars.
