On October 14 and 15, 2025, the Salon Business Hydro celebrated its 10th edition at Alpexpo Grenoble, marking a symbolic milestone for this event, which has become a must-attend in the hydropower landscape.
With a promising and inspiring theme – " The Regenerative Economy," this anniversary edition brought together all the players in the sector, all driven by the same ambition: to imagine and build a sustainable and responsible energy transition.
A sharp increase in participation
The 2025 edition far exceeded expectations, confirming the show’s growth momentum.
With 201 exhibitor stands—a 15% increase compared to 2024—and 2,218 participants from across the hydroelectric sector, Business Hydro is establishing itself more than ever as the leading professional event for water and energy stakeholders.
Memorable highlights
To celebrate its 10th anniversary, the trade show introduced several new features that were a huge hit with participants.
The Business Area provided a friendly setting for informal discussions over coffee, while the Business Lunch, a new sit-down meal in a dedicated space, created an environment conducive to networking and business opportunities.
The Gala Dinner, the highlight of the event, brought together more than 260 guests in a festive and warm atmosphere, punctuated by a mentalism show that captivated the audience.
Finally, the second edition of the Speed Meeting enabled more than 40 participants to start the day at 8 a.m. with a series of dynamic and targeted meetings, promoting the creation of synergies and the development of new partnerships.
A special thank you to Artelia, a key witness to this edition, for its contribution, expertise, and commitment alongside Business Hydro.
