History

Newly Swissed was launched in 2010 by Dimitri Burkhard, a digital marketing expert. [3] [4] The magazine incorporated as Newly Swissed GmbH in 2015. [5] [6] At the time, it was the only online magazine about Switzerland written in English. Newly Swissed is frequently quoted by major publications on the subject of expat life in Switzerland. [7] [8]

In the early stages, observations about Swiss lifestyle and culture served as the main sources of content. Now, the magazine covers a range of topics in-depth, from architecture to oddities, and from tourism to advice on in Switzerland. [9] The publication is primarily concerned with serving the international community in Switzerland, as well as the Swiss population living abroad. [10] Much of the magazine’s success has historically been built on its journalistic coverage of Switzerland from the perspective of multiple writers. [11] [12]

The readership is primarily located in Switzerland, followed by the United States and the United Kingdom. [13] [14]
