Tour suggestion by Elisabeth Schneider-Schneiter
We asked various personalities from the region which companies they will be visiting on Industry Night. The fourth tour suggestion comes from Elisabeth Schneider-Schneiter, President of the Handelskammer beider Basel and National Councillor for Basel-Landschaft.
An Attractive Region
Industry Night once again shows how attractive the Basel region is. Dive into the diversity of workplaces and learn more about what makes our location so unique.
I’ll begin with Switzerland’s economic powerhouse, the life sciences industry. Visiting one of these companies is not to be missed. At Straumann, you’ll see how precision-crafted and durable dental implants are made and why this technology means more than just a dazzling smile.
A few doors down, you can tour Gundeldinger Feld, a perfect example of how to innovatively convert a former industrial site. This buzzing new district centre boasts offices and studios as well as leisure and cultural activities. If you haven’t tried their food yet, stop by Vito, the legendary pizzeria. Here you can learn what it takes to make a pizza and understand why employees are the most important factor for a company seeking success.
And what would a strong business location be without our logistics companies? Did you know that Basel is a veritable logistics nexus? With its Rhine ports, airport, and cross-border rail and road networks, our region is better connected than any other in Switzerland. At Felix Transport, you can follow how your goods reach you and take a seat in a state-of-the-art lorry.
And while we’re on the subject of “state-of-the-art,” why not pay a visit to Reinach? Immerse yourself in the world of cutting-edge measurement technology at Endress+Hauser and learn why it helps keep milk fresh for longer.
Have I whetted your appetite yet? I look forward to meeting you at Industry Night 2024.
