How a Swiss AI company is influencing Hollywood 🎬🇨🇭

Founded at the EPFL Innovation Park in Lausanne, Largo is a Swiss startup specialised in analysing audiovisual productions using artificial intelligence. Its platform is already used by more than 600 clients, including production companies, studios and agencies, many of them based in the United States.

The technology analyses scripts, casting choices, and editing to estimate audience reactions, emotional impact, and the potential reach of a project. This helps producers make decisions earlier in the development process.

Several productions using Largo’s tools have already been released in cinemas and on streaming platforms such as Netflix, with some receiving international recognition and award nominations.

The company has also attracted international investors, including actor Sylvester Stallone.

| During its term on the UN Security Council, Switzerland initiated Resolution 2730 on the protection of humanitarian and UN personnel, including national and locally recruited staff. Adopted on 24 May 2024 with 98 cosponsors, it sends a clear message: protection must be strengthened, attacks must stop, and perpetrators must be held accountable.

During last week's Protection of Civilians Week 2026, Switzerland continued its longstanding commitment, rooted in its humanitarian tradition, to ensuring civilians are never left behind in times of conflict. It joined Group of Friends on PoC to call for full respect of international humanitarian law, and rallied 87 delegations behind shared commitments to place civilian protection at the heart of the UN system.

As conflicts intensify and resources shrink, Switzerland continues to stand up — together with its partners — for those who need it most. 🇨🇭

22 May 2026

The Embassy of Switzerland in Singapore issues the following statement, together with the Delegation of the European Union, the diplomatic missions of the EU Member States and the diplomatic missions of Norway and the United Kingdom in Singapore:

Following the ex*****on on 21 May 2026 of a 32-year-old Singaporean citizen, the EU Delegation and the diplomatic missions of the EU Member States, Norway, Switzerland and the United Kingdom reiterate our strong opposition to the use of capital punishment in all cases and in all circumstances.

This is the eleventh ex*****on carried out in Singapore this year.

The death penalty is incompatible with the inalienable right to life and the absolute prohibition of cruel, inhuman or degrading punishment.

International human rights law restricts the use of capital punishment to the most serious crimes, understood as crimes of extreme gravity involving intentional killing. Resorting to the death penalty to prevent drug production and trafficking does not meet this threshold. There is no conclusive evidence that the death penalty contributes to curbing or preventing drug trafficking more than other types of punishment.

Furthermore, it is a definitive punishment that makes possible miscarriages of justice irreversible.
We will continue to work for the abolition of the death penalty in the few countries that still apply it. Therefore, we call for Singapore to adopt a moratorium on all ex*****ons as a first step towards its full abolition, in line with the trend in the Southeast Asian region and worldwide.

🐶 “Nobility, devotion, and sacrifice”, do you know which Swiss dog breed this motto refers to? 🇨🇭

The story of the Saint Bernard begins in the heart of the Swiss Alps, at the Great St. Bernard Pass, nearly 2,470 meters above sea level, in Valais. 📍

In the 11th century, this passage between Switzerland and Italy was known for being dangerous. Bernard de Menthon founded the Great St. Bernard Hospice there to welcome and protect travelers.

It was in the 1660s that the first dogs appeared at the hospice. The Saint Bernard breed is believed to have originated from crosses between these dogs.

Originally intended for guarding and defense, they nevertheless distinguished themselves by rescuing lost travelers and people buried under the snow. Accounts from Napoleon Bonaparte’s soldiers in 1800 helped build the breed’s reputation. ⛑️

In 1887, the Saint Bernard was officially recognized as a breed of Swiss origin.

Though its origins are debated, the barrel worn around the Saint Bernard’s neck is said to have contained local remedies used in rescue operations.

And if this has sparked your curiosity... you don't want to miss our Swiss Weeks 2026 closing event! 🎬 On 9 June, we are screening Barry & Me, based on the true legend of Barry the St. Bernard, who is said to have saved more than 40 lives in the Alps in the early 19th century. A family adventure set against stunning Alpine scenery.

🇨🇭 Four languages, countless literary and cultural traditions, and one country that made multilingualism not just a fact of life but a legal commitment enshrined in the Languages Act.

German is spoken by more than 60% of the population, French is the main language of the Romandie region, Italian dominates in Ticino, and Romansh, a Rhaeto-Romanic language with Latin origins, survives in parts of Graubünden. Every Swiss child is required to learn at least one other national language at school, because Switzerland understood early on that a shared country can be built on different languages.

Sound familiar? 🇸🇬 Singapore knows this story well. English, Mandarin, Malay and Tamil — four official languages, one cohesive nation. Two countries, worlds apart geographically, yet both built on the same quiet conviction: that linguistic diversity is not a divide to manage, but a strength to celebrate.

What's your mother tongue? 🗣️

🌲 Swiss forests cover nearly a third of the country, and Singapore's green cover stands at around 40% — remarkable for one of the world's most densely built cities.

They protect against natural hazards, store carbon, preserve biodiversity and provide habitats for thousands of species. In a changing climate, healthy forests are more important than ever.

Two small countries, two very different geographies — both proving that protecting green spaces is a choice, not a coincidence.
