Events in Nyon Through a Different Lens
Event Video Production in Nyon and How Professional Filming Elevates Local Community Moments and Helps Them Be Remembered If there is one thing that defines Nyon beyond its lakeside beauty, it’s the way this town can bring people together. Lively summer festivals, cultural gatherings, corporate events, charity runs, or even the smaller community celebrations like the Fête des voisin·e·s coming up. Nyon has a special talent for creating moments that feel warm, and uniquely loc

L’INTERLUDE Inauguration in Nyon is a Full Day of Culture, Music and Play
Photo : Christiane Steiner On Saturday 2 May, Nyon’s new library space, L’INTERLUDE, officially opens its doors.

It’s free, open to everyone, and designed so you can drop in at any point. A Day That Starts Officially… Then Opens Up The morning begins with a more traditional moment.

Paying Yourself Smartly in Switzerland
Salary, dividends, shareholder loans and business expenses explained. As an entrepreneur, you’ve probably asked yourself more than once: What is the best way to pay myself from my company?

The Fun Side of Finance. A Conversation with Alex Clarke from Albatross.
Accounting firms are not usually described as fun. More often, they leave people with a sense of worry from all the complicated, financial language and tax form deadlines. Well, maybe it’s time to change that narrative. When you sit down with Alex Clarke, founder of Albatross in Gland, you quickly realise that he is trying to do exactly that. Earlier this year, I visited the team at their offices in Gland to learn more about the company, how they work with entrepreneurs acros

A Year On and What Living in Nyon Has Become
Just over a year ago, we invested in and rebuilt the Living in Nyon webite. No big relaunch. Just a clear sense that it was time to move from blog-led to community-led. To make it easier to navigate and more connected to the community around it. What hasn’t changed is this, it’s still entirely volunteer-run. There’s no large team behind it. No external media group. No paid newsroom. Just a small group of people who care about this area and want to make it easier for others to

A chance to get to know who lives next door. Maybe organise an apéro one day soon… Well, this is your moment. The Fête des voisin·e·s takes place on Friday 29 May 2026, and it’s exactly what it sounds like: an open invitation to turn your building, your street, or your courtyard into a social get-together, even if j

Thinking About Consulting in Switzerland? This Workshop Breaks It Down
There’s a point many people reach where consulting starts to feel like a real option. Maybe it’s alongside a full-time job. Maybe it’s between roles. Or maybe it’s that idea you’ve been sitting on for a while, quietly waiting for the “right time.” And then the questions start. How does it actually work in Switzerland? What’s allowed if you’re employed? How do invoicing and taxes work? And what happens if your clients are abroad? For many, it’s not the work itself that holds t
