Switzerland has no natural raw materials, its only resource is the good education of the people. This opinion is deeply rooted in this country. This is also shown by a new representative survey carried out by the research institute Gfs Bern on behalf of the Interpharma industry association and which is available to CH Media. The most important driver for Swiss innovative strength is the “strong education system”. 94 percent think that this “rather” or “very much” contributes to it.
