ICC Webinar «Trump Administration 2.0: First Insights from a Swiss Perspective »

Today, we were honoured to hear Ralf Heckner, Swiss Ambassador to the United States, at our webinar «Trump Administration 2.0: First Insights from a Swiss perspective».

Switzerland is well-positioned in the current trade policy upheavals:

• Switzerland is a crucial partner to boost innovation, high-qualified jobs and vocational training in the United States.
• Switzerland is one of the leading foreign direct investors in the United States (#1 in R&D, #6 overall).
• Switzerland has created more than 500'000 top jobs (average salary >130’000 USD) in the United States.
• Switzerland is the ideal trading partner for the United States. It has abolished all tariffs on industrial imports and the United States holds a trade surplus in services.

We thank all our guests for the stimulating discussion. A special thanks goes to Ambassador Ralf Heckner for his time and expertise.
