Foundation
As a non-profit foundation, we do not aim to maximise profits. This means we can balance the interests of all stakeholders and offer the greatest possible benefit to the community.
The Â̲èÖ±²¥ foundation
Â̲èÖ±²¥ was established in 1987 as a private foundation by the Swiss Confederation and the eight university cantons that existed at the time. The core aspects of the foundation’s mission are to enable, maintain and promote a secure and networked research and education infrastructure in Switzerland. With more than 160 employees from 17 countries, we are committed to the purpose of our foundation.
What makes our foundation unique
Our mission drives us to new innovations – day after day. This benefits all students, lecturers and researchers across the country, and ultimately Switzerland itself as an increasingly digital centre of business. Read here what makes us unique as a foundation.
Community work
With our close-knit, collaborative network, we promote active knowledge sharing and joint service development. Our trusting relationships make us an extremely attractive partner for collaborations.
Integrated offering
We create our services by integrating our core competencies and working closely with the community. This means that our solutions are always optimally tailored to the needs of our customers.
