Is the jungle growing back? Multilateralism in transition - consequences for Switzerland.“

Speaker: State Secretary Pascale Baeriswyl

We see growing nationalism and protectionism in many areas of the world, and multilateral institutions are increasingly questioned. What are the effects on Switzerland as a small but highly developed country not being part of one of the large blocks? State Secretary Pascale Baeriswyl introduced the discussion on this challenging topic.

Thank you for the fruitful discussion! Our appreciations go to State Secretary Pascale Baeriswyl and our distinguished guests.

To stimulate and facilitate the exchange with international organisations and the respective diplomatic representations in Geneva, we continued the Geneva Business Dialogue. We were pleased with the discussions on the topic of “regulatory policy in a changing world”. How can we address the potentially conflicting aspects of digital transformation, consumer protection and innovation in an era of increasing nationalism and protectionism?
