Switzerland is #1 for innovation, but what makes it so strong? 🇨🇭

Behind the rankings is a connected ecosystem: excellent research, highly skilled talent, close collaboration between science and business as well as the right conditions to turn ideas into impact.

💡This combination helps to move innovation from the lab to the market across sectors, disciplines and regions.

Switzerland ranks 3rd globally for corporate R&D intensity. 🇨🇭

A new EY study looking at the world’s top 500 corporate R&D investors highlights the strength of Switzerland’s innovation-driven economy.

🥉In 2025, the 14 Swiss companies included in the ranking invested an average of 8.4% of their revenue in research and development — placing Switzerland 3rd worldwide, behind the Netherlands and the United States.

This result emphasises the importance of long-term investment in innovation, as well as the strength of an environment in which companies, research institutions and public bodies collaborate to transform knowledge into progress.

Thank you to EY for bringing these insights to light and to Greater Geneva Bern area (GGBa) area for the graphic and the article below.
