Transforming Switzerland into a leading digital nation.

digitalswitzerland promotes high quality education, advanced skills development and the mainstreaming of lifelong learning in the digital field.

The digitalswitzerland Foundation is a politically neutral entity that is part of the digitalswitzerland initiative and ecosystem aiming to anchor Switzerland as a leading global hub for digital innovation. digitalswitzerland Foundation mainly consists of partners from academia, public organisations and NGOs/NPOs, and provides an open, independent and neutral forum to discuss and address issues related to the digital transformation, while developing the digital literacy of the Swiss population.

Digital Health is a key to ensure that Switzerland’s healthcare system is efficient, cost-effective and patient-centric. A digital transformation will increase transparency, accessibility and understanding of health information for the entire Swiss population. All healthcare actors need to collaborate to transition the healthcare system to the digital space and create a population mindshift.

Switzerland stands for decentralised prosperity which thrives from its regions. Regions hold enormous potential for the future, and they are home to most small and medium-sized enterprises. We celebrate each region’s digital strengths and come together as a strong digital nation with global impact. To do so, we collaborate with regional networks that draw from their unique assets, local structures, and already established models to promote the opportunities of digital transformation. Our initiatives grow from our regional hubs in Romandie, Bern area, north-western Switzerland, central Switzerland, Ticino and eastern Switzerland and are looking to expand even further.

Some of the most pressing challenges cannot be solved alone. They require a multi-stakeholder approach to develop sustainable solutions for society and the economy.

Get involved in our network, find inspiration through transversal exchange with change-makers and valuable keynotes and drive your innovation forward.

We enable a meaningful dialogue with the public on digital transformation. We offer a platform for concerns, questions and topics by bringing together citizens with experts and policy makers.

The security of citizens, the state and companies in the virtual space is our concern. We provide information about risks and implement measures to increase digital security together with the public sector.

We provide a national platform to foster support and innovation to grow the Swiss startup ecosystem. We increase national and international cooperation, connect corporates to startups and work to strengthen this network.

Digitalisation is a transversal issue and is a crucial factor ranging from health policy and security policy to media and financial policy. Therefore, a technology-savvy view of all dossiers and an open dialogue across the various disciplines are necessary. digitalswitzerland is actively involved in ensuring that the opportunities and challenges of digitisation are recognised and taken into account in the legislative process. We moderate between economy, politics, administration and academia.

We take an analytical look at the development and trends of the digital economy. Key industry figures, economic data, forecasts, survey results and study reports are available.

We build bridges to tech hubs around the world and showcase Swiss innovation to position Switzerland as a leading hub for digital innovation.
