It’s also a unique platform bringing together SMEs, startups, research institutions and associations.
GAIN was founded in 2017 by four Geneva-based aerospace companies and is currently composed of over 15 Western Switzerland SMEs. Together, they employ over 6,300 people with a market capitalization of CHF 1.9 billion. They design, manufacture and deliver innovative Swiss aerospace solutions to major Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) around a 3 pillar based approach : Electronic, Metal, and Services.
Its purpose is to create business and innovation synergies among its members, with the ultimate goal to contribute to a safer and a more sustainable world.
The organization supports its members by enhancing their competitiveness and providing needs-based services, such as participating in the offset transactions under Air2030 Program (Business Committee), sharing quality-oriented training courses and leading joint projects (Quality Committee), reducing our Greenhouse Gas Emissions (Decarbonization Committee), and developing the aerospace applications of tomorrow with research institutions by jointly undertaking R&D programs (Innovation Committee).
