The cantons of Western Switzerland announce the setting-up in 2008 of a cluster for the promotion of Information and Communication Technologies. This platform, called “AlpicT”, will be led by the canton of Geneva. AlpicT is entirely part of the economic development policy of Western Switzerland that aims at enhancing the economic, technological and industrial potential on a national and international level.
The cluster’s main mission is to stimulate the development of the NTIC sectors of Western Switzerland’s fields of excellence.
