The Swiss Impact Forum 2025 edition
The fourth edition of the Swiss Impact Forum, held on 12 November 2025, brought together more than 450 leaders to collectively explore what a new vision of prosperity could look like and how businesses can help make it real. The theme of the day was set by keynote speaker Timothée Parrique, economist and author of Slow Down or Die: The Economics of Degrowth, who challenged the audience to move beyond carbon tunnel vision and rethink the very foun- dations of our economic model. His talk, Prosperity Beyond Capitalism, sparked honest conversations about what it truly means for a business to thrive within planetary boundaries. Voices from banking, coffee, and sustainability certification came together in the flagship panel Prosperity for Long- Term Success, moderated by Michaela Reimann (Visiona- lity / Basel2037), with Kim-Andrée Potvin (Banque Bonhôte), Kathrin Amacker (Fairtrade Max Havelaar Switzerland), and Jérôme Perez (Nespresso Global). Together, they explored how regenerative practices, transformative capital alloca-
tion, and human-rights-focused initiatives can redefine what success looks like — asking not just «Is it profitable?» but «Does it build resilience? Keep us within planetary bounda - ries? Strengthen social cohesion?» The forum also celebrated innovation and impact through the first Swiss Future Award ceremony, organised in partnership with the Petram Foundation, recognising three pioneering companies: Luya (Environment Award), Deeplink (Innovation Award), and Kompotoi (Public Choice Award). This fourth edition reaffirmed the power of collective action and the shared commitment to building a more sustainable and prosperous Switzerland.
