An evening of short presentations and open discussion around a U-shaped table — entrepreneurs and guests from institutions and international business relations, invited by SDAV.

SDAV organised the evening at the Mövenpick Hotel in Egerkingen, in the Olten region. Around a U-shaped table, entrepreneurs and guests from various professional and institutional backgrounds followed a series of short presentations — among them an introduction to the Swiss legal system and to company formation: legal forms, the steps of incorporation and what follows it, from taxes and work permits to trademark protection — and joined the discussion.

The evening was designed around networking, dialogue and business relations — and around the community and long-term cooperation the association seeks to build. The photographs below document the evening.
