Andreas Widmer elected IAA President Switzerland
Andreas Widmer, CEO of Y&R Group Switzerland, was elected the new president of IAA Switzerland at the IAA’s annual general meeting. He succeeds Daniel Hofer, who had held the position since 2009.
In Switzerland, the IAA is represented by the IAA Swiss Chapter and the associated IAA Young Professionals. The Swiss Chapter, which was founded in Switzerland in 1962, currently has around 175 members. The Young Professionals, which has existed since 1996, currently has just under 80 members.
These chapters are intended to promote the exchange of ideas and information between members here in the Swiss market. They are dedicated to the promotion of qualified young talent and offer members regular events that address relevant and current topics from business, marketing and communication - especially from an international perspective. The chapters facilitate contacts with IAA members in other countries and provide access to the numerous services of the global organization.
