Our mission

Economists from Switzerland are doing research all around the globe. In order to facilitate contact and academic exchange between those researchers and to strengthen their ties to Swiss research institutions, the Network of Swiss Economists Abroad has been founded. The network is open to economists who are from Switzerland or have strong ties to Switzerland, and are currently conducting research abroad at a university or research institution.

We facilitate contact between Swiss economists abroad in two ways:

• Establishment of a contact list of Swiss economists abroad containing basic information about their position, research interests and contact information.
• Organization of an annual end-of-year conference with presentations by Swiss economists doing research abroad.
