Opening horizons
If Switzerland is to flourish as a commercial centre and a place to live, the country needs universities that offer an environment for innovation and entrepreneurship. But what is needed above all are people with ideas who are not afraid of the risks entailed in realising them.
Under the auspices of Gebert Rüf Stiftung, Katja Gentinetta attaches importance to cooperation between the various disciplines. Where the natural sciences, social sciences and humanities team together, better answers can be expected to the questions of today and tomorrow.
