NURTURING YOUNG INNOVATORS: FUTURE DAY 2025 AT SECURECELL

Written by: Andreas Riklin

Swiss Future Career Day 

On November 13, Securecell once again opened its doors to curious young visitors for this year’s National Future Day. The event gave children an engaging, hands-on look into the diverse world of engineering, software development, and science — and a chance to experience innovation up close.

 

Exploring the World of Technology

Throughout the day, participants rotated through a variety of interactive workshops designed to spark creativity and curiosity:

  • Chemistry in Action: Children identified chemicals by scent and pH value and created colorful alginate beads.

  • Design & 3D Printing: Using CAD software, they designed personalized plates, which our 3D printer later transformed into real objects.

  • From Blueprint to Build: With construction plans in hand, they assembled their own remote-controlled cars and connected the necessary electronic components.

  • Smart Programming: The groups then programmed an app that allowed them to steer their cars via smartphone.

  • Technology Spotlight: A live demonstration of Securecell’s automated sampling platform, Numera, fascinated the young attendees as fluorescent liquids highlighted its precision and automation.

The children’s excitement throughout the day served as a powerful reminder of why investing in future talent matters.

Powered by Team Spirit

This inspiring day was made possible thanks to the commitment and enthusiasm of our colleagues: Pablo Rodriguez, Nicolas Scalbert, Pawel Brzozowski, Julian Baragan, and Stephan Bielmann. Their guidance not only supported the activities but left a memorable impact on the children and their families.

Shaping Tomorrow Today

Securecell remains committed to nurturing curiosity and encouraging the next generation of innovators.
