Connections lie at the heart of every successful venture. The adage “being in the right place at the right time,” coined years ago, remains as relevant today as ever. In our fast-paced and dynamic world, networking has become even more crucial, with the success of a project often closely tied to the strength of one’s connections.
Recognizing this growing importance, the Monaco et Suisse Investment Forum was launched in 2021. This annual business networking event, held in the Principality of Monaco, provides entrepreneurs, family offices, and investors with the opportunity to explore a diverse range of complementary investment opportunities in a single location.
Leveraging the synergies between the Principality of Monaco and Switzerland, the forum was established in collaboration with Repeople, a Swiss-based real estate network formerly known as Borsa Immobiliare Ticino.
The primary objective of the Monaco et Suisse Investment Forum is to create a unique platform for select entrepreneurs to expand and strengthen their networks, fostering valuable connections that can significantly accelerate business growth. To ensure maximum visibility and achieve the event’s objectives, the MIIF team works closely with exhibitors before, during, and after the event.
Following the success of its inaugural edition, the forum rapidly expanded beyond Switzerland and Monaco. The second edition welcomed participants from Luxembourg, Germany, and the Middle East. Reflecting its broader vision and increasing international presence, the event rebranded in September 2023 as the MIIF – Monaco International Investment Forum, reinforcing Monaco’s position on the global stage.
In December 2024, we established a new company in the Principality of Monaco dedicated to supporting start-ups and scale-ups in the fields of innovation and sustainability. This initiative aims to connect investors with promising start-up projects seeking funding or strategic partnerships. Additionally, a series of complementary events will be organized to facilitate essential business introductions, further driving impactful entrepreneurial ventures.
Looking ahead, MIIF will host its 4th edition in Monaco on March 13th and 14th, 2025. For the first time, the forum will also expand to Dubai on November 2025, marking a new milestone in its international journey.
