Your Professional Network with a Touch of Homeland
CometX is a Swiss nonprofit dedicated to hosting educational and social events for Czech and Slovak expats. We foster collaboration between academia and industry and help build your professional network. Our work creates a bridge of knowledge, talent and ideas between Switzerland and our home countries.
CometX Mission
Networking — Community Hub — Debates — Conferences
Business — Academia — Industry
CometX is an organization for Czech, Slovak and Polish expats, students, professionals, and all others living in Switzerland. Our goal is to connect people with each other, as well as with institutions and companies. We aim to support the personal growth of individuals with the potential to become outstanding leaders with a strong sense of civic responsibility. To achieve these objectives, we focus on networking activities that help individuals expand their business and personal connections. We also showcase the exceptional achievements of expats in Switzerland and their home countries, and bring attention to their activities. We foster discussions in various fields such as business, science, industry, art, economy, and current socio-political issues. The idea for CometX was born from a sense of disconnection from our home countries, fellow compatriots, and culture. Many of us moved to Switzerland for study, work, or personal reasons, and through CometX, we provide a unique opportunity for Czech, Slovak, and other foreign citizens to strengthen their network. We also offer information and support for a smooth transition to Switzerland, and help maintain local connections.
