Switzerland meets… is a unique opportunity for Swiss producers and representatives of public funds and television to meet a delegation from another region/country, and to encourage co-production, networking and collaboration. In 2026, delegations from Austria, Croatia, Czech Republic and Slovakia are coming to Nyon: Switzerland meets Central Europe!

This annual programme is conceived to create long lasting co-production networks, build bridges between Switzerland and international professionals, and increase the international potential and visibility of producers from different regions.

The programme includes a roundtable with presentations of national funding frameworks, as well as co-production opportunities and challenges, and is centred around networking sessions where participants can introduce their work and explore potential collaborations.

  • Austrian Films
  • Croatian Audiovisual Center
  • Czech Film Center
