Could your company benefit from #TEPA?

Whether you're exporting, investing, providing services or looking for new #business partnerships, TEPA could create new opportunities.

The key is knowing where to start.

🧀From cheese and tofu waste to cleaner air.

That's the new #innovation from @ETH Zurich, where #researchers have developed a carbon capture method using food by-products.

Another reason why it ranks among the global top 10 in @worlduniranking.🏆

Not every product made in #Switzerland automatically qualifies for the benefits of a trade agreement.

Why?

Rules of Origin determine a product's official country of origin for #trade purposes and help decide whether it may qualify for the benefits of #TEPA.

#Diplomacy, but make it stylish. ✨

@SwissAmbIND Maya Tissafi was recognized by @htTweets for her appreciation of Indian textiles. 🧵

An evening of #fashion, #art and #culture in bridging people. 🤝

[Embassy of Switzerland in India and Bhutan @SwissEmbassyIND]

Myth or Fact? 🤔

TEPA is more than tariffs—and not every common assumption about the agreement is true.

In this week's #TEPATuesday, we're separating myths from facts. 🇨🇭🤝🇮🇳
