On US tariff policy: Swiss Federal Councilor Guy Parmelin visits Swiss technology firm WEY Technology Inc. in Washington

As a leading provider of high-quality control room systems and trading floor solutions, WEY Technology Inc. is exposed to intense international competition and challenging price pressure in the US market. Even minor changes in the regulatory framework – such as the introduction or threat of additional tariffs – can have far-reaching consequences when it comes to competitiveness. Such changes also have far-reaching consequences for the Swiss economy, given that WEY Technology Inc. specializes in complete IT solutions that are used primarily in security-critical areas, such as energy supply, financial services, aviation and public security.

We are delighted that Federal Councilor Guy Parmelin and his delegation took the time to visit our office in DC. During this valuable exchange of views, WEY Technology Inc. offered its take on the effect of existing and impending tariffs on negotiations with the US authorities. We would like to thank the Federal Council, SECO and the Embassy of Switzerland in DC for their support and efforts.
