Switzerland

Tell us more about your work at CIEB.  The CIEB — which stands for Center for International Economics and Business — is a research center within the Faculty of Economics at the University of Basel dedicated to the analysis of the Swiss economy, with a particular focus on structural change, innovation and digital transformation. Our work bridges the gap between basic research and applied analysis.

One of our focuses is the study of innovation in the life sciences, recognizing its significant economic impact on the Basel region and Switzerland as a whole. What distinguishes us from many think tanks and economic consulting groups is our independence due to our affiliation with the university.
