A needs analysis and assessment of the status quo will be carried out to determine the need for new infrastructure and to record existing projects. Also, based on a master plan, the development potential for future years will be highlighted in line with the regional strategy.

The working group, made up of representatives from the municipality of Saanen and GST, intends to evaluate the need for infrastructure for culture, events and sporting purposes, as well as for congresses, in the region. The group will uniformly record existing projects in these areas. The aim is to get an overall picture of the infrastructure needs for these areas to promote sustainable development in Gstaad while identifying the best synergies for the various needs and projects.

The plan is for the working group to present the results to the Contact Committee for Economics during the first quarter of 2020 and define the next steps. The contacts for the working group are mayor Toni von Grünigen and GST president David Matti.
