Lide Suíça

Connect, do business, influence.

Lide Suíça is the Swiss chapter of LIDE – Grupo de Líderes Empresariais, the Brazilian business leaders’ network that celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2026 and is present in more than 20 countries. We bring together the CEOs, investors, founders and public leaders who shape the corridor between Brazil and Switzerland.

Brazil is our anchor, Switzerland is our hub, and the LIDE network is our reach.

Why now

With the EFTA–Mercosur Free Trade Agreement signed in September 2025, Brazil and Switzerland are entering a new phase of trade and investment. Opportunities in finance, agribusiness, commodities, industry and innovation are growing, and so is the need for trusted relationships on both sides. That is what Lide Suíça is for.
