8th Zermatt Summit: "New business models conquer the world".

From 12 to 14 September 2019, the Zermatt Summit will take place for the eighth time in Zermatt, Switzerland. "Entrepreneurship to serve the common good" is this year's conference theme. 25 globally active entrepreneurs, such as Alisée de Tonnac, who was recently nominated by Forbes Magazine as one of the leading "Social Entrepreneurs under 30", or Giuseppe Lavazza, who was the first coffee market leader to launch compostable and biodegradable coffee capsules in 2015 at 100%, will show in their keynotes and as panelists how they break with the traditional logic of mainstream business through innovation.

Over 150 business and opinion leaders from Switzerland, Europe and overseas are expected at the high-profile business summit. One of the declared goals of the Zermatt Summit is: the classic economic model, which focuses on people, must be transformed - inspired by nature and taking into account the needs of all people.

Radical change required

We need a radical departure from the throwaway economy that has prevailed since industrialisation. Using concrete examples from cutting-edge technology and modern entrepreneurship, the Zermatt Summit explains that this model makes no sense in our ever-changing climate. The projects developed at the conference not only promote a new circular economy, but create multi-income streams that decouple companies from existing core business models and turn them into more stakeholder-oriented organizations.
