Business succession Switzerland
Business succession in Switzerland is not merely the transfer of a role. It changes responsibility, family, ownership and identity at once.
Succession planning for Swiss SMEs
A sustainable succession plan starts long before the legal handover. Owners and successors need to clarify roles, expectations, decision rights and the future influence of the previous leadership. The confidential circle provides a place to consider these questions outside the company. Successors are designated members of the next generation who are under 45.
Considering succession options early
Family succession, a management buyout, external management or a company sale each create different demands. CIRCLE60² does not broker companies or replace transaction advisers. It gives business owners and successors independent peers with whom to reflect on the personal and entrepreneurial consequences of their options.
Successors in family businesses
A generational transition in a family business affects more than the organisation chart and ownership. Successors speak with people who have experienced company handovers, made mistakes and carried consequences. Not as sellers of a method, but as entrepreneurial counterparts.
Next-generation business owners in tandem
Once a year, every member is paired with a person from the other generation. Four moderated, confidential conversations enable an exchange rarely possible within the family, board or company.
Planning SME succession early
Those who begin building their own network only after the formal handover begin too late. CIRCLE60² creates dependable relationships for people taking over, developing or gradually transferring a company.
