Technology, the fusion of science and creativity, is a catalyst for innovation. Emerging technologies have the potential to highly impact and transform various industries, as well as the way people live and work. Such innovative and potentially disruptive advancements are increasingly becoming the focus of research and innovation policy to provide solutions to address societal challenges. Switzerland's technology ecosystem is characterized by a strong emphasis on research, a supportive start-up culture, and a focus on key areas such as biotechnology, quantum technologies, AI, CleanTech, and academic collaboration, making it a significant player in the global technology landscape.
