An extended show feature highlighting startups and new exhibitors
For more than 20 years, ISE has proudly showcased innovation. Now we're taking it to the next level – once again.
Innovation Park is located in Congress Square, at the heart of ISE – opposite Halls 4, 5, 6 and 7. Building on its success in 2025, it has been extended for ISE 2026 to feature companies that are new to the show, as well as entrepreneurs and startups with breakthrough business ideas. So it brings together a hotbed of innovation into one place.
Innovation Park comprises:
- Exhibition pods for 132 companies
- Pitching Stage
- Matchmaking Area
- Evening startup networking events
It's supported by the Investor Forum on the first day of ISE 2026.
UPDATE: Innovation Park is now sold out.
