Our Mission

San Francisco Zürich Sister City Committee

The city of Zürich has enjoyed a partnership with San Francisco for many years now – one that has led to a friendship between the two cities due in no small part to the great commitment shown by the san Francisco and Zürich committees over the years.

The San Francisco-Zürich initiative, launched in 2003 by business and academic circles, aims to share knowledge and experience, support the development of partnerships and networks, as well as sustain positive relationships between the two cities.

Areas of interest

  • Art, design and culture

  • Tourism, food and hospitality

  • Life sciences, health and technology

  • Urban development

  • Government and exchange

Each area of interest produces various initiatives and programs based on conversations with San Francisco and Zürich communities of all sorts.
