With a good network, you meet interesting people, discover valuable information and generate new business. Due to Schaffhausen’s compact size and responsive decision-making structures, having a good network helps you achieve a lot.

Networks help with the transfer of knowledge and sharing of experience and can certainly contribute to your success at work. Even though we live in a digital world, networking events to facilitate personal contact are irreplaceable. The Economic Promotion Team is an important part of the business networks around Schaffhausen and also organises a number of networking events itself.

Here you will find an overview of the forums and events organised by the Economic Promotion Team. We would be delighted to show how you can benefit from these by connecting with the local business community. We make it happen, so get in touch.
