Annual Report 2025: Closing of the Pilot Phase

The Annual Report 2025 marks the conclusion of the Financial Innovation Desk (FIND) pilot phase. Since its creation in 2023, FIND has acted as Switzerland’s public hub for financial innovation. This report provides an overview of the year’s main activities.

FIND

In 2025, FIND delivered a broad spectrum of initiatives: the publication of Pathway 2035 for Financial Innovation – Your Navigator in January, the second edition of SwissHacks, and the 2025 Innovation Tour. FIND also positioned Switzerland’s ecosystem on the international stage with events such as the panel “Doing More with Less” at the Geneva Day during the World Economic Forum in Davos, and by participating in the Global Government Fintech Lab in Ireland in June.

Further highlights include the launch of the FIND Your Academia Map, a workshop Pathway for Financial Services Integration, a fact-finding initiative on quantum-safe technologies, and two dedicated market surveys. FIND also expanded its digital library with new articles, analyses and deep dives.

The experience gained during this two-year pilot has confirmed the value of such a platform for advancing financial innovation in Switzerland. As of 1 September 2025, FIND will be integrated, in adapted form, into the State Secretariat for International Finance (SIF) (see related press release).
