In today’s dynamic business environment, innovation is no longer a luxury — it’s a necessity. At the Swiss CxO Forum (SCF), innovation takes a collaborative and focused route through specialized CxO-led Think Tanks. These are purpose-built communities where decision-makers and industry leaders engage in deep dives on high-impact topics shaping Switzerland’s digital and economic future, in alignment with the goals of platforms like the Swiss Innovation Forum.
What Are Swiss CxO Forum Think Tanks?
Swiss CxO Forum – Think Tanks are expert-led, cross-industry think tanks designed to create actionable insights and foster strategic collaboration among Swiss business leaders. Each group is driven by C- Level executives and seasoned professionals who are passionate about digital transformation, emerging technologies, and future-focused leadership.
Unlike traditional workshops or webinars, these think tanks act as living labs, where innovation is co-created, tested, and shared in a trusted environment—an approach that complements the spirit of initiatives like the Swiss Innovation Forum.
Why Think Tanks Matter in Today’s CxO Landscape
