ABOUT

AGIR was initially founded under the name «Comité de citoyen en faveur de la valorisation du Centre William Rappard» in 2009 by a group of Geneva citizens. Their goal was to foster closer ties between Geneva’s local communities and International Geneva. Founding members include Vincent Subilia, General Director at the Geneva Chamber of Commerce (CCIG), Marie Barbeys-Chappuis, Mayor of Geneva, Fabrice Eggly, Director of Communications & Public Affair at m3 Group, or Alexandre Munafo, Head of Global Engagement at Geneva Call.

 

In 2021, we relaunched AGIR as a group of young professionals. We connected over our shared sense that International Geneva lacks the physical and ideological space to create synergies beyond the usual silos. 

 

Our aim is to bring together people over a shared vision to help Geneva deliver on its unique potential. By facilitating spaces for encounters, we want to build bridges between local and international Geneva, create  synergies between different ecosystems and open opportunities to inspire change for other young professionals.
