At Innovation Day’s ‘From Ideas to Impact’ sessions, Ishaan presented his startup EcoeEdus, a platform designed to support real-world climate action. He was recognised by the Swiss FinTech Association with a Young Innovation Award for his EcoeEdus Climate Tools Library – a practical platform helping individuals, businesses, and communities take meaningful environmental action.
The library currently offers 16 free interactive tools, enabling users to track emissions, explore sustainability data, plan green retrofits and make informed environmental decisions. By making complex environmental data accessible and actionable, the platform empowers users to turn climate ambition into measurable change.
Alongside pitching his startup, Ishaan demonstrated leadership by convening and moderating a youth discussion. He interviewed and selected panellists and assembled the team for a talk on “How the youth view Climate Change.”
Reflecting on the experience, Ishaan said receiving two Young Innovator awards – one for his panel and one for his pitch – reinforced his belief that practical, impact-driven ideas resonate when they are designed for real-world adoption.
He described the event as inspiring, highlighting a clear message:
We do not always need more concepts – what we need is faster adoption, stronger collaboration, and the will to scale what already works.

Davos provided a powerful reminder of what young people can contribute when they are trusted with responsibility and given meaningful platforms to lead and collaborate.
