About the Novartis Campus in Basel

The Novartis headquarters in Basel, Switzerland, include a state-of-the-art center for research, development, and global management. First-class architecture and exquisite design contribute towards a working environment that encourages innovation, creativity, and cross-departmental collaboration. In addition to international star architects such as Frank O. Gehry and David Chipperfield, the Japanese architects Tadao Ando, Fumihiko Maki, Sejima & Nishizawa (SANAA), and Yoshio Taniguchi have helped shape the campus with their office and laboratory buildings.

After a welcome by Novartis country president Matthias Leuenberger, Novartis chief architect Marco Serra will give visitors an exclusive tour, which will also feature the buildings designed by Japanese architects.

The program will conclude with a reception.
