Switzerland to remain the world’s innovation leader

Berne/Zurich, 27.9.2019 - Switzerland is internationally regarded as the world innovation champion. However, digitalisation and globalisation are stoking competition. The ETH Board’s strategy aims to retain the ETH Domain’s research and teaching at the top in the future, too, and to reinforce Switzerland’s innovative power. At its meeting of 25/26 September, the ETH Board also expressed its opposition to the limitation initiative, which would be to the detriment of research in Switzerland, and welcomes the resolution of the National Council. The Board also (re)appointed the members of the ETH Appeals Commission.
