EHL HumanX Summit 2026

19 - 20 May 2026
EHL Hospitality Business School
Route de Berne
Lausanne, 1000
Switzerland
At its core, HumanX stands for Human Experience, Human-centric Excellence and Experimentation. It’s a space to explore how empathy, creativity, and human-centric thinking can shape the way we lead, work, and live. HumanX embodies the evolving story of what it means to be human in a rapidly transforming world. The “X” represents the intersections where humanity meets change and technology, where innovation meets emotion, and where new forms of connection - both digital and human - are continuously redefined. It also represents the experience itself: how we feel, grow and relate in an increasingly complex environment.
Powered by the EHL Innovation Hub, the Summit invites us to expand the boundaries of human potential and to reimagine a shared future, one where humanity remains at the center of progress.
What to expect
The EHL HumanX Summit, powered by the EHL Innovation Hub, brings together visionaries from hospitality, travel, and service industries for two transformative days of leading with hearts, hands, and minds:
- Inspiring talks and fireside chats with industry leaders
- Hands-on workshops and challenges
- Immersive - and gastronomic experiences
- Curated matchmaking between startups, corporates, and investors
It’s more than a summit, it’s where bold ideas turn into real solutions.
