Fribourg Network whets the appetite
The 2019 edition of Fribourg Network Freiburg serves up a taste of the canton’s thriving agrofood sector. National and international readers can choose from an exciting à la carte menu, which includes profiles of over 40 companies, as well as a few surprises. In addition to the print editions in English, French, German and Mandarin Chinese, the canton’s annual business magazine has its own website, which has undergone a complete redesign. It is now a fitting showcase website for the Fribourg economy, offering an array of great multimedia content, which will be continually updated throughout 2019.
So, what are the ingredients for economic growth? Olivier Curty, Cantonal Minister of Economic Affairs, quotes a few numbers. “Every year, the agrofood sector in the canton of Fribourg exports more than 130,000 tons of goods, worth close to CHF 400 million. Thanks to its quality agricultural production, coupled with the presence of national and international processing facilities, and our renowned institutions providing cutting-edge education, research and innovation, the canton has emerged as a major player in the Swiss agrofood sector.”
Fribourg Network Freiburg is available in four languages and actively promoted on social networks. The 2019 edition will be available from 19 March on the website www.fribourgnetwork.ch, and is desktop, tablet and smartphone-compatible.
FNF is an external communication tool of the canton of Fribourg and its development agency. Half of the 4,500 printed copies are destined for local companies, consultancies and law firms, and hotels throughout the canton. The second half will be distributed to members of the national and international business communities, Swiss embassies and consulates, as well as multinational accounting firms and leading economic agencies across Europe, America and Asia.
