Cross-Border Business Cases:

CEO (Favre Leuba Switzerland)

Through our Indian partner, who is involved with a large conglomerate and the acquisition of the second-oldest Swiss watch brand, we were mandated to conduct the search for a CEO in Switzerland.

CEO (u-blox Japan)

Thanks to an excellent client contact in the publicly listed semiconductor industry, we were able to acquire a mandate for our partner in Japan to recruit a CEO for the local subsidiary.

General Manager (BÜCHI Labortechnik, Thailand)

One of our clients in Switzerland was approached by a partner company asking who could support them in executive search in Thailand. In collaboration with our local partner, we were subsequently able to successfully place a General Manager in Bangkok.
