Community and networking: Review of the Swissrail General Assembly and VöV General Assembly in Basel

On September 7, 2023, Swissrail members met in Basel for the annual General Assembly. Swissrail members were able to take advantage of the opportunity to network the day before during a networking walk followed by dinner. What was special about this pre-evening program was that the participants had to cook their dinner together, which further deepened the connections within the Swissrail family.

In late summer, the public transport industry met in Basel for the annual general meetings of Swissrail and the Association of Public Transport (VöV). Swissrail members came together the day before to take part in a networking walk and enjoy a nostalgic ride on a historic BLT streetcar through the picturesque Basel countryside. The evening was all about cooking together, which brought the members closer together and strengthened the community. The word "family" was mentioned several times, underlining the close bond within the Swissrail community.

On September 7, the General Assembly took place in the morning, at which our esteemed President Peter Jenelten was bid farewell and the newly elected President Christian Schnyder was welcomed. The VöV General Assembly program then began.

We would like to thank all participants for the interesting discussions, the positive energy and the motivation to move forward together. It became clear: the General Assembly is a formality, while networking remains our core.
