TEPA.swiss®
From Intention to Execution Without Detours
Practical programs for Swiss companies that want to build real business in India.
Trade agreements only create value when they are used.
TEPA.swiss designs programs for modern Swiss entrepreneurs who don’t want to study India — they want to build business there.
No generic delegations.
No policy theatre.
Just structured programs that lead to real market access.
