The 38th St. Gallen Symposium
University of St. Gallen
Switzerland
15–17 May 2008

Global Capitalism – Local Values

St. Gallen

City of St. Gallen


St. Gallen is the centre of Eastern Switzerland: located between Lake Constance and Zurich in the four-country-region of Austria, Germany, Liechtenstein and Switzerland. The historic old quarter of the town as well as the monastery, recognized by UNESCO as World Heritage, make St. Gallen one of Switzerland’s most important urban architectural ensembles.


However, St. Gallen is also a main business centre. Innovative small- and medium-sized future-oriented enterprises are active participants of the market besides internationally known conglomerates. Furthermore, St. Gallen features
a versatile hotel and congressional infrastructure and has to offer a variety of attractive complementary programmes.


The ISC feels very fortunate having enjoyed the enduring goodwill of the region of St. Gallen over the past three decades of its existence. Besides the support of the University of St. Gallen that forms the basis of the ISC’s activities, local business and administration have been a pillar of the St. Gallen Symposium from the very beginning.
