APIA Swiss Partners

APIA Swiss: an ecosystem of partners

APIA Swiss offers complementary visibility to its partner members.

APIA Swiss creates a dynamic that benefits partner companies.

By pursuing the shared interest of developing good governance in SMEs, our partners derive the following benefits:

  • To contribute to strengthening Switzerland's economic position and to enhance their company's image.
  • To complement one's expertise in governance
  • Develop your network of contacts and increase your visibility among SME leaders
  • To showcase one's skills through jointly organized events
  • Leveraging synergies with the Association

Admission criteria

Partner members are legal entities with relevant expertise for the Association and wishing to support good governance in SMEs alongside APIA Swiss.

Their contribution is:

  • Financially, through membership fees and event sponsorships,
  • Organizational, through the co-organization of events,
  • Professionally, through participation in APIA Swiss working groups, a source of new knowledge, and through collaboration with members in the exercise of their mandates.

The number of partners is intentionally limited to promote mutual enrichment and reduce areas of friction between them.

Admission

Candidates are sponsored by the member or partner who introduced them to APIA Swiss.

Members of the Steering Committee meet with representatives of the candidate.

The conclusions of the interviews are reported to the Steering Committee, which then makes the decision to accept or reject the application.

No commitment of availability is required for a partner.
Experience shows, however, that the best partner is the one who is involved.

The partners' contribution for 2019 is set at CHF 1,500.-
