The Tourism Strategy of the Swiss Confederation, adopted by the Federal Council on 10 November 2021, lays the groundwork for Switzerland's tourism policy, aiming to boost the industry's international competitiveness and attractiveness. It focuses on improving business conditions, promoting entrepreneurship, leveraging digital opportunities, enhancing tourism offerings, and supporting sustainable development. The strategy includes 15 flexible action items, such as advancing digital transformation and strategic monitoring. It is supported by funding instruments like Innotour, the Swiss Association for Hotel Credit, Switzerland Tourism and the New Regional Policy. Guided by principles of prioritisation, implementation, target group focus, and subsidiarity, the strategy emphasises continuous improvement, stakeholder engagement, and a holistic approach to building a resilient and sustainable tourism industry in Switzerland.
