EVENTS

The various Swiss representations across the United States organize and host events throughout the year. Each event has a different specific focus and theme, but they all fall within the five key impact areas of Switzerland in the United States: Innovation, Economic Relations, Sustainability, International Partnership, and Culture.

Our events vary by location and size. Some of our events and activities are open to the public, others can be enjoyed online, and some are by invitation only. We are excited to showcase our current and past programming on this page and encourage you to join us at one of our upcoming public events!
