Recap: Viktor Award Gala 2025

The Swiss Cancer Institute was nominated for the prestigious "Viktor - The Swiss Healthcare Award" in the category "Pioneering achievement in the Swiss healthcare system". The award ceremony took place on 12 March 2025 in the Kursaal Bern and brought together leading personalities and organizations that are actively shaping the healthcare system in Switzerland.

The "Pioneering achievement in the Swiss healthcare system" category recognizes initiatives that have a visible impact on the system, are relevant to patients and are solution-oriented. For the Swiss Cancer Institute, this nomination is a significant recognition of its own work and commitment to linking research, clinical practice and data more closely in order to bring innovations to patients more quickly.

Even though the award in this category went to the ART-THERAPY Foundation, the nomination underlines the relevance of interdisciplinary collaboration and innovative approaches to overcoming complex challenges in healthcare. The Swiss Cancer Institute is proud to be part of this ecosystem and to work together with strong partners on sustainable solutions.
