Vision and Mission

Welcome Message from the Director of SSIAT

In 2016, Switzerland and China established an unique "innovative strategic partnership". The two countries, though different in size and history, share a common ambition: the development of technologies that benefit society, particularly in the medical field, where innovative solutions are needed to support the full cycle of life. At SSIAT, we act as a bridge—not just between these two nations, but between the worlds of research and industry.

Our mission is clear: to give life to new diagnostic/treatment approaches and solutions, fostering their development to ensure they are accessible to the public through a translational approach. Our researchers are driven by the desire to create impactful innovations that address the most pressing societal challenges and bring real hope for improving health conditions and quality of life.

SSIAT's commitment to fostering collaboration between academia and industry is at the heart of everything we do. By uniting expertise from diverse fields, we aim to accelerate the development of breakthrough technologies and bring them closer to practical application. We believe this is where true progress happens—at the intersection of knowledge and real-world impact.

It is with great enthusiasm that I contribute to this effort, knowing that the advancements we support today will shape the healthcare landscape of tomorrow. Together, we strive to make meaningful strides in addressing global health challenges and creating a future where innovative technologies improve the lives of people everywhere.

Thank you for joining us on this important journey.

Sincerely,

Benoît DUBUIS

Director of SSIAT
