The Swiss Model: A Relic of the Past or a Blueprint for the Future? - Raymond Loretan

In an increasingly fragmented and unpredictable world, Switzerland’s model of neutrality, stability, dialogue, and consensus continues to attract attention, but also raises new questions: Is the Swiss model still a source of resilience, prosperity, and international influence, or does it need to be rethought in light of today’s geopolitical, technological, and economic challenges?

In this fireside chat with the President of the American International Club, Raymond Loretan will share his insights on Switzerland’s unique position in a rapidly changing world, its role as a trusted bridge-builder, and the lessons that the Swiss model may offer for the future of diplomacy, business, governance, and international cooperation.
