For a resilient, responsible and prosperous Swiss economy

It is aimed at building a resilient, responsible and prosperous Swiss economy through a three-step accompaniment of the country’s companies to measure their contribution to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and, thus, to identify the most important areas for improvement, while opening up new business opportunities and stimulating innovation.
The STI program aims to bring sustainability to the core of Swiss companies of all sizes and sectors to make it a standard activity.
For its part, BAK Economics is pleased to be able to contribute to this achievement by actively promoting the program within its network.
