At the eighth Sino-Swiss Economic Forum in Beijing, Rondez Lucas, chairman of the China Swiss Chamber of Commerce (SwissCham), highlighted the unique business rapport between Switzerland and China. \"The two countries complement each other,\" Lucas told CGTN, emphasizing how Swiss innovation pairs perfectly with China\u2019s vast market potential and manufacturing prowess.
Think of it like a global power duo: Switzerland\u2019s precision in tech, finance, and sustainability syncs with China\u2019s rapid digital transformation and green energy push. Lucas noted bilateral trade has grown steadily, hitting $65 billion in 2023—a 12% jump from the previous year.
From luxury watches to renewable energy, the partnership thrives on mutual trust. With young entrepreneurs and startups driving cross-border collaborations, Lucas sees \"limitless opportunities\" ahead—especially in AI, biotech, and eco-friendly infrastructure.
