Label Suisse is also an industry gathering: more than 400 people took part in the weekend's seven professional events.1 Among the highlights, the organisers name 'Borderline', the first production by Label Suisse itself, created by Nathalie Froehlich and Hook.12 In a press release, Laurent Maire, president of the Association Label Suisse, describes the success as proof of how vital Swiss music-making is.1 The source says nothing about the budget.
