The Club Suisse de Monaco marked a standout year during its 2025 General Assembly, drawing more than 90 members for an evening that reflected both the strength of the community and the club’s continued growth in the Principality.
Held in a warm and convivial atmosphere, the gathering highlighted what has been a record year for the association, with rising membership numbers and solid financial performance. Members expressed clear satisfaction with the club’s direction, pointing to a growing sense of momentum and engagement within Monaco’s Swiss community.
One of the key moments of the evening was the re-election of the Comité, which received strong backing from members in recognition of its efforts over the past year. The leadership’s work in expanding activities and strengthening the club’s presence was widely praised.
The Assembly also welcomed ten new members, including a 19-year-old—the youngest to join—whose presence was seen as a promising sign for the future of the organisation. The arrival of younger members reflects a broader effort to keep the club dynamic and forward-looking while maintaining its traditions.
A note of appreciation was extended to members who have contributed throughout the year, whether by hosting events or supporting the club financially. Their involvement has played a key role in enabling the club to expand its activities and maintain a high level of engagement.
Looking ahead, the Club Suisse de Monaco is introducing new initiatives to build on its success. Among them is the creation of a “Conseil des Présidents émérites”, an advisory body bringing together former presidents whose experience will help guide the club’s future. The council includes Roger Bollag (1985–1987), Marius Wetzel (2001–2005), and Philippe Ragaz (2006–2010).
The club also unveiled a new ambassador programme aimed at strengthening its international visibility. These ambassadors will promote the club abroad and help attract new members while representing the values of Monaco’s Swiss community. Among the first to take on this role are Monika Kaelin and Philippe Ragaz.
The evening was attended by several distinguished guests, including Laila Schlereth, whose presence underscored the close ties between Monaco’s international communities.
Following the formal proceedings, members gathered for dinner, continuing conversations in a relaxed setting that reflected the strong sense of camaraderie at the heart of the club.
With growing membership, new initiatives and a clear vision for the future, the Club Suisse de Monaco appears to be entering its next chapter in strong shape while continuing to reinforce the bonds of its community both within the Principality and beyond.
