Various factors are posing new challenges for Bern's export industry, such as a lack of demand in many industrial sectors, a strong Swiss franc, as well as uncertainty surrounding the geopolitical situation and customs duties.

To help the companies affected, we were strengthening our services and providing vouchers for research and development (R&D vouchers) and export (export vouchers) in the amount of CHF 4,000 to CHF 30,000. The vouchers could be redeemed with our partner organizations for various services.
