SEC Business Luncheon with Martin Hirzel – co-organized with Swissmem
The growing importance of the CEE region for the MEM industry
June 21, 2022. SEC Business Luncheon with Martin Hirzel – co-organized with Swissmem. Find out why the CEE region is so important to the Swiss MEM industry.
The Central and Eastern European (CEE) region has gained in importance for the Swiss mechinery, electrical and metal (MEM) industries over the past decade. In terms of total MEM industry exports, it has now reached the size of China. One of the advantages of this region is its geographical and cultural proximity to Switzerland. Despite the war between Russia and Ukraine, the region is likely to gain in importance in the context of nearshoring from Asia.
Our speaker is Martin Hirzel, president of our co-organizer Swissmem. We look forward to a lively discussion.
Martin Hirzel has been active in the Swiss industry for more than 20 years. During 9 years, until 2019, he was CEO of Autoneum Holding AG. Today, he is a member of the Board of Directors of Bucher Industries AG, Dätwyler Holding AG and two private SMEs. He is also a member of the regional business council of the Swiss National Bank and chairs the advisory board of the ZHAW School of Management & Law.
Swissmem is the leading association for SMEs and large companies in Switzerland’s mechanical and electrical engineering industries (MEM industries) and related technology-oriented sectors.
