Rewiring Switzerland – A Net-Positive Playbook for a Small Country with Big Ambitions

Monday 19 January 2026 14:30-16:30 CET

OCEAN ROOM

At Davos 2026, frontrunner businesses and partners come together to accelerate Switzerland’s transition to a net-positive, resilient economy through the Swiss Impact & Prosperity Initiative (SIPI). Powered by B Lab and InTent, SIPI is a national transformation platform uniting business, finance, science, policy, and civil society to drive this shift within planetary boundaries.

SIPI mobilises its ecosystem to scale new business models and finance, realign markets and governance, and shift the narratives that shape decision-making.

Robust data and AI infrastructures help measure what matters, connect efforts, and accelerate impact across three missions: Resource Sovereignty, Health Sovereignty, and Food & Nutrition Sovereignty.

Launched in Davos last year, SIPI now moves into its execution phase. We invite committed stakeholders to co-lead pilots, contribute capabilities, and co-design the next wave of action so that Switzerland can become a living example of a net-positive economy.
