Background
Geneva's industrial zones face strong demand. More than 220 requests for space have been filed, totalling 700,000 square metres.
The key points
To preserve its industries, Geneva wants to densify its existing industrial zones. Delphine Bachmann, the State Councillor in charge of the economy, and Guillaume Massard, director general of the FTI, set out the planned solutions in the Tribune de Genève.
Options include raising existing buildings and converting car parks into business space.
Key figures
- Requests for industrial space: more than 220.
- Total area requested: 700,000 square metres.
- Companies in the PAV that must leave the area: at least half.
What it means for businesses
At least half of the companies in the PAV will have to leave this area undergoing transformation. Eco-parks bring together companies, municipalities and the State to pool infrastructure and shared services.
