Looking for Your Dream Job?

Still unsure about your career path or struggling to pick an industry? Get hands-on guidance—with guaranteed fun—at the Industry Night Regio Basel. This is your chance to dive into a fascinating variety of work environments and connect with ease to innovative employers.

The 48 participating companies will give you a behind-the-scenes look in an engaging, dynamic, and memorable way. You’ll experience their daily operations firsthand and get a real feel for the workplace vibe. Unlike a traditional job fair, the Industry Night brings you directly to where the action happens—where innovation, production, and company culture come to life. It’s the perfect setting for an unforgettable evening of career exploration.
To help you navigate the event, here’s a quick overview of the industries represented:

The most significant economic sector in the Basel region, Life Sciences, sits at the intersection of medicine, biology, chemistry, technology, and the environment. Companies here develop pharmaceuticals, research health risks, create prosthetics, and much more. At the Industry Night, you’ll meet Medartis, Roche and Straumann—a fantastic opportunity to experience the world of labs and medical tech up close.

Life Sciences rely on advanced machinery and equipment produced by the MEM industry (short for Machinery, Electrical, and Metalworking). Two global leaders in this field are based in Reinach: Endress+Hauser, specializing in high-precision measuring instruments, and Neoperl, known for water-saving technologies—both standout employers.

Electrical & Building Technology is another high-demand field that offers exciting opportunities. At the Industry Night, you can explore it from multiple perspectives with Actemium, Axians, ETAVIS, Selmoni, QuantumBasel, and JETZ Youth Technology Lab, where cutting-edge jobs and training await. Transport and logistics have also undergone major electrification, and at the Industrienacht, you can experience Basel as a transport hub at three locations: SBB, Felix Transport, and Ultra-Brag Logistics.

If you prefer hands-on craftsmanship, visit Die Bürste, Götschi and Alfred Imhof, or get a glimpse of timber construction at Schreinerei Knörndel. Love all kinds of delicious treats? The local food industry has plenty to offer—from savory baked goods to sparkling drinks and soothing herbal candies. Be sure to stop by Bäckerei KULT, die Birtel Biermanufaktur, Ricola, Sutter Begg, vinigma und Volta Bräu for some tasty discoveries.

If architecture and urban development interest you, check out Blaser Architekten, Franck Areal, Stücki Park and uptownBasel at the Schorenareal.

Keeping the Basel region running smoothly requires strong infrastructure. Companies like SBB, Swisscom, IWB (providing water and energy), Exhibition and Congress Center Basel, and dandelion (dementia care) play key roles. Waste management and construction also contribute to sustainable living—learn about circular economy principles at Lottner and OFFCUT, and maybe even discover a future-proof career in these vital industries.
