On March 18, 2015, we hosted the first edition of “Lift sous la Coupole” in partnership with the parliamentary group Start-up and Le RĂ©seau in Bern within the Federal Palace. This event brought together an audience of 50 participants, including entrepreneurs, investors, parliamentarians and key senior members from various federal authorities, such as SECO, SERI, FNS and FDF.
The initiative was greatly welcomed by all members of these communities as they rarely have the opportunity to be in the same room for discussion. Investors and entrepreneurs got the opportunity to share their thoughts and provide benchmarks, enabling parliamentarians and representatives from federal authorities to assess, how to tackle the current challenges. The discussion was followed by a lively Q&A with the federal councilor Jonas N. Schneider-Amman.
This first edition was a great success and was meant to identify the main issues in a general dimension. In subsequent meetings, to be held during parliamentary sessions, we will be exploring these issues in more depth.
