How would you present the strengths of the Lake Geneva region’s strengths to our international audience?
The Lake Geneva region, which we often call the ‘health valley of Switzerland’, benefits from having two intersecting innovative clusters, one in MedTech and another in biotech. Looking at the course of life sciences development the field is headed in a direction where a distinction between MedTech and biotech is gradually fading away; some of the most exciting innovation is taking place at the crossroads between related fields including medicine, biology, biotech, chemistry, micro and nano technologies, and information and communications technology.
"Campus Biotech is backed by two main organizations, the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne which is oriented towards engineering, and the University of Geneva which is focused more on basic research."
