Connecting innovators and accelerating wind solutions worldwide
WeDoWind is the first open innovation platform dedicated to wind energy
The energy transition needs more than ambition, it needs collaboration! By unlocking the value of data, we accelerate insights, reduce wasted effort, and empower an entire industry to innovate together. WeDoWind was founded at the Eastern Switzerland University of Applied Sciences (OST), and recently transformed into a Swiss non-profit organisation. It currently has more than 500 members from research and industry. We bring people and solutions together with data to unlock its full value.
