About YEx Lugano
Established at the dawn of 2020, YEx Lugano was born amidst the challenging times of the COVID-19 pandemic.
However, this did not deter the dedication and resilience of our board members. They rose to the occasion, adapting swiftly and innovatively to offer a range of digital activities. This included a series of inspirational interviews, comprehensive and insightful webinars, and dynamic digital networking events. This strategic digital pivot not only preserved the spirit of YEx Lugano but also allowed it to rapidly grow into a substantial network of esteemed professionals and entrepreneurs.
Post-pandemic, YEx Lugano took a significant leap forward by organizing various face-to- face events. These events were not only successful but also laid the groundwork for future collaborations with the prestigious organization Italian Chamber of Commerce for Switzerland. One particularly noteworthy event was focused on the intricacies of internationalization. Given its great success and positive reception, this event is now set to be a highlight of our annual calendar.
Annually, the YEx Lugano Board thoughtfully assembles a diverse and enriching calendar of activities. These activities are carefully selected to cover a wide array of interests and industries, ranging from internationalization trends, cutting-edge innovation and startups, to the celebrated “Made in Italy” brand, as well as engaging cultural events. We also host more relaxed and social gatherings, such as the highly appreciated Summer Cocktail event, held annually on the picturesque banks of Lake Ceresio.
In our unwavering quest to continually raise the bar of excellence, the board and members of YEx Lugano are committed to involving distinguished speakers and securing supportive sponsors. These efforts are integral to the successful execution of our varied initiatives. YEx Lugano has thus established itself as the ideal venue for Swiss and Italian professionals and entrepreneurs to meet, exchange ideas, and enjoy a blend of enlightening and entertaining experiences in a vibrant and convivial setting.
