With the Hidden Champions series, HSG Alumni invites you behind the scenes of Switzerland’s most fascinating, globally successful yet low-profile companies. These exclusive events offer direct access to entrepreneurial excellence — from family-owned businesses to industry leaders — that shape global markets while staying rooted in Swiss values.
Meet the people behind the success, experience company culture up close, and gain insights that go far beyond the headlines.
The Hidden Champions series was launched thanks to the initiative of HSG alumnus Christoph Walser. He has over 20 years of international management experience in the retail and consumer goods industry, including as country manager and member of executive boards. Today, he supports Swiss and European SMEs in strategy and transformation projects and acts as a sparring partner for entrepreneurs and CEOs.
