Known for his effervescence and adventurous nature, Ranveer Singh tried an array of activities in Switzerland to get his adrenaline pumping. From wakeboarding on Lake Zurich, ski jumps at the Swiss Museum of Transport in Lucerne, tobogganing on Mt.Pilatus, paragliding and skydiving in Interlaken, he tried them all. But adventure was just one of his holiday thrills. Ranveer, also a great chocolate lover had a go at chocolate making at the Funky Chocolate Club in Interlaken. Being a complete football fanatic, Ranveer Singh visited the FIFA World Football Museum in Zurich and of course also paid tribute to Mr. Yash Chopra by visiting the Yash Chopra Suite at Victoria Jungfrau and the Yash Chopra Statue in the Kursaal Garden.
In short, Ranveer Singh had a ball on his first trip to Switzerland and now he can’t wait to endorse its virtues to everybody.
Ranveer Singh said, “Switzerland has always been known for its serenity and its natural beauty but what surprised me were the adventures in store for me when I visited. Going to Switzerland has always been my dream. After all it’s a country made famous by Yashji! And now I look forward to my next trip as official brand ambassador in winter. I’ve been told it’s like visiting an entirely different country.”
Mr. Claudio Zemp, Director – India, Switzerland Tourism said, “Being a versatile energetic and adventurous personality, Ranveer explored and enjoyed all that Switzerland has to offer. His passion and excitement for the country is what compelled us to request him if he would take on the mantle of Brand Ambassador to which he enthusiastically agreed. Switzerland has always made for a picturesque and mesmerising holiday experience with its terrific natural beauty. With Ranveer on board we would like to showcase the multifaceted holiday experience that is Switzerland.”
Ms. Ritu Sharma, Deputy Director, Switzerland Tourism India, said, “Switzerland is a perfect place for a complete holiday experience that will leave you spellbound for days. Tourists look for a blend of sightseeing, relaxation and adventure together with easily available accommodation and good food and welcoming hosts. And that is exactly what Switzerland offers with its, snow covered mountains, crystal clear lakes, various nature excursions, it’s superb public transport system, it’s boutique cities and culinary indulgences. This is already well known to the Indian tourist but what Ranveer discovered is the other more active side of Switzerland with its many heart thumping experiences like sky diving, heli-skiing, kitesurfing, river rafting, canyoning etc. Holidays in Switzerland always create memories that last a lifetime and everyone that visits falls #inlovewithswitzerland.”
As a lover of nature, adventure, great outdoors and extreme sports, Ranveer is now looking forward to visiting Switzerland in winter early next year. During his next trip to the country, Ranveer will be visiting St.Moritz – the playground of the rich and famous and the picture perfect village of Titlis Engelberg and will experience first-hand this winter wonderland while enjoying an array of activities and the country’s local culture.

Through the years Sibos has served as an excellent platform for EastNets to demonstrate how our open platform and architecture offers the best protection against money laundering and unintentional involvement in terrorist financing, among other rapidly growing threats to the global financial system. As one of the world’s most important financial centres, Switzerland is a fitting venue for us to emphasize the need for greater balance between security and performance as financial institutions contend with today’s challenging market realities.”

Breastfeeding: The Child’s First Foundation to a Healthier Tomorrow
#Breastfeed India
New Delhi, 3rd August 2016: Medela India, a Switzerland based global manufacturer of breast pumps and nursing accessories, has launched a campaign to highlight ‘Breastfeeding as the Foundation for a Child’s Better and Healthier Tomorrow’. The campaign video brings to the forefront, the necessity and significance of breastfeeding for laying a strong and healthy foundation for the child during the initial years of his life.
The video also focusses on the beautiful relationship between a mother and a daughter and the former’s role in motivating and supporting the latter to breastfeed her own baby.
According to a survey conducted by Medela India, 41.49% of new mothers sought advice from their own mothers on breastfeeding. For all challenges related to breastfeeding or any doubts, a new mother’s own mother was their first point of contact to understand the essentiality of breastfeeding.
Recognizing this remarkable mother-daughter relationship, the narrative begins with a working mother who like most of her contemporaries faces a challenge in balancing work and motherhood and hence formula feeds her infant as opposed to breastfeeding.
The video progresses with the infant’s grandmother narrating a story to her daughter to make her understand the significance of building a strong foundation, especially when it comes to her own child. She further stresses that just like everything else in life requires a solid foundation in order to sustain and be strong, the same goes with the child. The narrative ends with the mother realising the importance of breastfeeding her child and switching from formula to the former.
The narrative highlights the message that breastfeeding is that essential aspect which when practiced by mothers for more than a prolonged for six months, contributes in reducing the infant mortality rate of the nation and building a better tomorrow.
This video has also been carried on their official website # Breastfeed India.
