Switzerland is the number one choice for American companies seeking fast and sustainable growth in Europe. Nearly 700 U.S. companies including eBay, Google, Kraft, J & J, and Medtronic already enjoy the moderate taxation, well-educated workforce, and pro-business legal structure offered.

A distinguished group of delegates will discuss the advantages of using Switzerland as a central access point for your business in Europe. Discussion topics include access to funding, tax planning, corporate structures, support for start-ups, and availability of qualified workforce. Delegates include representatives of Swiss federal and regional economic development agencies and KPMG.
