New Delhi, August 1, 2023 – The International Chamber of Media and Entertainment Industry (ICMEI), on behalf of the entire art and culture fraternity of India, extends its warmest congratulations to H.E. Ralf Heckner Ambassador of Switzerland to India and the people of Switzerland on the joyous occasion of Switzerland’s National Day, celebrated on August 1st.
India and Switzerland share a longstanding and robust friendship, rooted in mutual respect and cooperation. This bond between our nations has grown stronger with time, and we take this moment to celebrate the rich cultural and diplomatic ties that unite us.
One remarkable milestone in the journey of Indo-Swiss relations has been the visit of Mr. Sandeep Marwah, the Chair for the Indo-Switzerland Film and Cultural Forum, to Switzerland. His visit has not only bolstered bilateral ties but also paved the way for increased collaboration and creativity between our nations, particularly in the fields of cinema, arts, and culture.
Switzerland, renowned for its breathtaking landscapes, world-class precision engineering, and vibrant culture, continues to captivate hearts worldwide. On this National Day, we applaud the Swiss people for their unwavering commitment to democratic values, innovation, and excellence.
ICMEI remains dedicated to fostering cultural exchanges and promoting international cooperation in media and entertainment. We are excited about the potential for further collaborations between India and Switzerland, as we continue to explore and celebrate the beauty of diversity through art and culture.
