Wyssen as Main Sponsor of ISSW 2026 in Whistler, Canada

We are pleased to announce that Wyssen will be the main sponsor of the International Snow Science Workshop (ISSW) 2026 in Whistler, British Columbia.

ISSW is recognized worldwide as one of the leading platforms for the exchange between science and practice in the field of snow and avalanche research. Under the guiding theme “A Merging of Theory and Practice,” the conference brings together experts from research, industry, and operations to discuss the latest developments, challenges, and innovations.

ISSW 2026 will take place from September 28 to October 2, 2026 at the Whistler Conference Centre. The event will feature a diverse program including scientific presentations, workshops, field sessions, and networking opportunities. A dedicated public workshop day will further promote knowledge transfer beyond the core professional audience.

As a global leader in remote avalanche control systems, Wyssen is proud to actively support this important event once again. ISSW offers a unique opportunity to showcase innovative solutions, foster collaboration between research and practice, and contribute to advancing avalanche safety worldwide.

By taking on the role of main sponsor, we demonstrate our long-term commitment to safety in alpine environments and to the continuous development of avalanche mitigation technologies. We look forward to connecting with professionals from across the globe — scientists, practitioners, and decision-makers alike.

Whistler provides an ideal setting for ISSW 2026. As one of North America’s premier mountain destinations, it offers the perfect environment for both practical fieldwork and meaningful exchange.

We are excited to be part of ISSW 2026 and to help shape the future of snow and avalanche science together with the international community.
