The CHOOSE Forum, organised by the special interest group CHOOSE of the Swiss Informatics Society (SI), has a long tradition of promoting advanced topics in software engineering through high-quality talks and discussions. Known for hosting excellent speakers from both academia and industry, the forum has served as a vibrant platform for knowledge exchange and networking. After a break during and following the COVID-19 pandemic, we are now preparing to reestablish the annual forum; though the forum used to be a standalone event, we co-locate its first edition after the break to make the most of the opportunity that SE2026 is taking place in Switzerland, fostering valuable exchange with the broader software engineering community.
