Nyon and La Côte: a region open to the world
Nyon is the main town of La Côte, the region stretching along Lake Geneva between Geneva and Lausanne. Its location, close to Geneva and well connected to the rest of Switzerland, has attracted the headquarters of many international companies and organisations. UEFA, for example, has its headquarters in Nyon. A large part of the population works in a multilingual environment, often in English.
La Côte also remains a wine-growing region, with winegrowing villages between Nyon, Rolle and Morges. The local economy includes many SMEs: fiduciaries, property management agencies, brokerage firms, medical practices, shops, craftspeople and consultancies.
Typical needs of businesses on La Côte
In this region, SMEs often serve a demanding, international clientele. Recurring needs include:
- Bilingual tools: websites, forms, documents and phone reception in French and English.
- Clear processes: clients used to large-company standards expect fast answers and precise follow-up.
- Efficient small teams: many businesses have few staff and need to save time on admin.
- Well-protected data: clients want to know how their information is handled and where it is stored.

Data protection
SMEs on La Côte often handle data about foreign clients or staff of large organisations. We take the nFADP (new Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection), in force since 1 September 2023, into account from the design of our tools. We restrict access and favour hosting in Switzerland whenever possible. Our article on hosting data in Switzerland presents the options.
