Symposium

Every fall, HarbourClub hosts the leading symposium on the Swiss communications scene. During the annual get-together for communications specialists, a selection of distinguished speakers from the field or from academia, as well as CEOs and politicians, provide new insights and outlooks. These are then discussed in depth with practical examples in several breakout sessions.

Each year, we are hosted by a member company – in 2022 by Siemens and before that by BKW, Swiss Re, Swiss Federal Railways (SBB), Novartis, ABB, Swiss Post, Zurich Insurance, Roche and Helsana. As well as listening to some high-profile international speakers, the 200 or so participants also had the opportunity to meet CEOs face to face, while HarbourClub members provided an insight into the world of CCOs at special breakout sessions.

The last HarbourClub Symposium took place on November 17, 2022. Click here for more information. The 2022 symposium is scheduled to be held on November 21 2023 in Basle.

2024 findet das Symposium am 13. November bei Zühlke Engineering in Schlieren bei Zürich statt. Das Programm geben wir im Sommer bekannt.

The annual HarbourClub Symposium always provides me with valuable impetus and prompts me to keep on rethinking how I perceive my own role as a communications manager.

Wir sind jeweils Gast bei einem Mitglieds­unternehmen. 2022 war Siemens, davor die BKW, Swiss Re, SBB, Novartis, ABB, Post und Zurich Insurance Gastgeber. Die rund 200 Teil­nehmenden hatten dabei die Gelegenheit, neben renommierten internationalen Referenten die jeweiligen CEOs zu erleben. Einen Einblick in die Welt der CCOs geben jeweils HarbourClub-Mitglieder in speziellen Breakout-Sessions.
