Nous sommes ravis d'organiser le finissage de l'exposition de l'artiste Bernard Garo sur la thématique des glaciers et de la neige. Ce moment convivial d'Art & Apéro aura lieu dans les bureaux de VFP le vendredi 12 avril prochain, de 17h30 à 21h. Toutes les informations et inscriptions ci-dessous.

A self-taught multidisciplinary artist, Bernard Garo is displaying his work in Verbier during the winter of 2023/2024, amidst various collaborations including one with VFP. His works make an impact, both visually and through their message. The beauty of these pieces, whether they are photographs, paintings, or even films - the most recent of which have received international accolades- is striking. Born in Geneva and living between Beijing, Paris, and Nyon, it is a privilege to have such a personality for the winter exhibition in Verbier.

Alongside him, Carine Perraudin, an invaluable assistant. Interview with Serge and Carine.

At the dawn of a journey to Latin America, we meet Philippe Stettler and his daughter Alexandra. After 36 years leading the company, it is now time for Philippe to pass on the baton. Benefiting from international banking experience, Alexandra returned to Verbier this summer, the resort where she grew up, to take over the reins of the company. Operating camps for 10 out of 12 months, Les Elfes welcomes 10,000 children aged 6 to 17 from 70 countries each year. Working alongside 250 international schools, they employ 40 people year-round, and up to 120 people during peak seasons, making them one of the largest employers in the region. Here is an ­interview of Philippe and Alexandra.

A structured tool that highlights the strategic orientations of the resort, the brand-new master plan for Verbier - Val de Bagnes also ensures coherence between the public and private sectors. This extensive effort offers a clear vision : “Become a reference for sustainable, four-season mountain tourism destinations.” An interview with Simon Wiget, the director of Verbier Tourisme.
