ESPRIX Swiss Excellence Award
Switzerland’s leading recognition for sustainable organisational excellence, the ESPRIX Award honours organisations that go beyond compliance to deliver high performance, foster innovation, and create long-term value. Participants are recognised across three tiers: Gold (Award Winner), Silver (Prize Winner), and Bronze (Finalist). Beyond the honour itself, organisations benefit from expert feedback, national visibility, and access to a cross-sector network of peers and pioneers.
ESPRIX Hall of Fame
A tribute to organisations that set new standards of excellence, the Hall of Fame showcases those honoured by ESPRIX as the trailblazers that serve as national role models for transformation and progress.
