Why...
Switzerland
A foothold at the heart of Europe’s economy.
Switzerland stands out for its political stability, high-quality institutions, favourable social climate and competitive tax system. It ranks among the most innovative countries in the world and benefits from a highly qualified workforce.
Multilingual and multicultural, located at the crossroads of Europe, Switzerland provides companies with a structured environment in which to succeed on international markets.
The Canton of Vaud
A dynamic and connected innovation hub.
The Canton of Vaud brings together many sectors of excellence, including healthcare, technology, agri-food and luxury. It benefits from a vibrant business ecosystem, world-class research centres such as EPFL and UNIL, and a strong international outlook.
An ideal environment to innovate, recruit and grow sustainably.
Our region
Your strategic base in Switzerland
Combining quality of life, an ideal location and openness to the world.
An alternative to major urban centres, combining accessibility, competitive costs and attractive framework conditions for business.
At the heart of French-speaking Switzerland, between lake and mountains, the Swiss Riviera on Lake Geneva has established itself as a dynamic economic hub, connected to major decision-making centres at both national and European level.
The region brings together the best of both worlds: an exceptional quality of life and a stimulating ecosystem driven by international companies, innovative SMEs and a growing pool of start-ups.
In a human-scale environment, talent attractiveness meets the responsiveness of local stakeholders. Here, ideas circulate, projects take shape and collaborations are built to last.
The Swiss Riviera — Montreux, Vevey, Oron — is more than a region: it is a solid base for growing your business.
The Swiss Riviera attracts talents, entrepreneurs and investors from around the world.
Its exceptional setting, qualified workforce and natural openness make it an ideal location for companies focused on international markets.
Rooted in Switzerland’s DNA, linguistic and cultural diversity — French, German, Italian and English — facilitates exchange and creates an environment conducive to global business.
Here, we speak your clients’ language — and understand their expectations.
Working here means combining performance with inspiration.
With its mild climate and spectacular landscapes between lake and peaks, the Swiss Riviera offers an outstanding living and working environment.
It is also a culturally rich region, embodied by the UNESCO-listed Lavaux vineyards and the legacy of iconic figures such as Charlie Chaplin and Freddie Mercury.
A region where quality of life and business momentum go hand in hand.
The Swiss Riviera occupies a strategic position at the heart of French-speaking Switzerland.
Ideally located at equal distance from major economic hubs — Geneva, Neuchâtel, Bern and Sierre — it benefits from direct access to key motorway and railway routes, as well as seamless connections with German-speaking Switzerland.
A key location for companies seeking to expand efficiently across Switzerland while remaining connected to international markets.
