Dear all,

To follow up on previous postings re differences between Switzerland and
the
US, I am interested to hear from fellow Swiss, especially entrepreneurs,
what
they learnt from their experience in the US?

I often see young Swiss coming into the US for a couple of days
(visiting
partners or looking for business opportunities) and each time they go
home
with new ideas and a more positive attitude. Do you feel the same way?
What
are the best attitudes / mindsets that we could develop in Switzerland?

I feel that the mental of an entrepreneur affects tremendously the
result of
her/his venture. Maybe this might also explain why we are only now
starting
to have a culture of entrepreneurship in CH. Since you now get more
support,
at least moral support, when you are starting a company, you feel more
powerful in the early stages of your venture when talking to employees /
partners / financiers.

Anyway, I would love your 2cts on this question. Have all a great
weekend!

Best,

Pascal Marmier
