GVZ conference on June 10, 2026 on «Fire protection enforcement - best practice»
Fire protection is a duty, a responsibility and a decisive factor for safety at the same time. However, effective enforcement is not achieved through regulations alone, but through clear responsibilities, technical expertise, practical tools and a consistent focus on risks. This is precisely where the GVZ conference BRANDSCHUTZ 2026 comes in.

Under the title «Fire Protection Enforcement - Best Practice», the conference will show how the Canton of Zurich implements legally required fire protection measures in a targeted, effective and practical manner. The focus is on the legal mandate, the organization of enforcement, the supervision of the municipalities, the importance of training and experiences from municipal practice.
Additional presentations will be devoted to new digital tools for risk assessment, the resource-oriented use of quality assurance in fire protection and current challenges in target/actual comparisons. Specific solutions for effective enforcement will also be presented.
The conference will also focus on the completely revised fire protection regulations BSV 2026. Participants will be given an overview of the current status of the project. The results of the technical consultation completed in January and the expected adjustments will be presented.
Looking to the future, the concluding presentation will focus on AI-supported application aids and their potential for fire safety professionals. The conference will also address new technological developments that can support and further develop enforcement in the future.
The GVZ conference FIRE PROTECTION 2026 offers valuable specialist knowledge, concrete impulses and a practical look at current developments. It is an ideal platform for all experts, authority representatives and managers who want to effectively advance fire safety and strengthen enforcement in the long term.
