Purpose:
metrobasel’s purpose is to create a platform and voice and to be a protagonist of the Basel metropolitan region in support of the efforts of government, business and civil society in making the “metrobasel 2020” vision into reality. This calls for the maintenance and enhancement of the international competitiveness of the Basel metropolitan region and its sustainable development.
