Get together outside the ordinary

Be it a strategy off-site or an incentive trip, an un-conference or an anniversary, we are your single point of contact from the very first idea to the moment you wave goodbye.

During the past 9 years, we have hosted retreats and events across the Swiss Alps, roamed the coolest places in Europe, and even explored Sri Lanka with a team.

Do your thing, we take care of the rest.

Before the event

Whether it’s about thinking up the right flow, finding the perfect location or the best facilitators, we’re here to help you. What’s more, we take care of all the nitty gritty details of logistics.

During the event

We run and host your event, while you enjoy being with your team or guests. A little touch here and there, will make a big difference. Working with trusted partners we can offer anything you might need.

Most of the events and retreats we organize are work related. Many of our clients are in the tech business, but we’re open to all companies who love their teams. Here’s a few of the lovely teams we’ve worked with over the past years.

Testimonials

Alpine Co-Working organized the most inspiring and enjoyable team event we’ve ever had. Our hosts chose an excellent location, delighted us with freshly cooked snacks and meals throughout the day, let us work when we were in the zone, and made sure we would find time to relax at the end of the day with an exquisitely stocked fridge and a hike with a view. They clearly care about what they do and I can hardly wait for our next event with them.

Contovista had a very productive company offsite in Ftan. Isabelle made sure that everything was perfectly organised so that we could be creative. To be repeated.
— Gian Reto à Porta, Contovista
We had a wonderful time at the Alpine Co-Working in Ftan. It was the perfect setting for the first ever “tutti.ch hackathon”: over the course of 3 days 4 teams worked, formed, mingled, and hacked a product extension, a new advertising format, and two apps. Isabelle and her team were extremely responsive, and provided the perfect infrastructure and support for our needs. We all look forward to the next event!

At Alpine Co-Working we found the perfect environment to onboard 4 new team members and run a sprint on a large and challenging new project. With almost no planning effort from our side we got a complete team retreat where everything was taken care of. We loved it and will be back soon!

 Let’s do this together!

Your retreat will be custom tailored to your group and to the purpose of your gathering.

Location scouting & programming

If you have ever planned an event for a group of 10 or more people, you know that finding a nice venue that matches all criteria and is available for the dates agreed, can be very time consuming. We’re happy to help you with this.

We research and visit locations, negotiate prices and, if you wish, suggest and organise side events for you. Depending on what you need, we will also help you defining the flow (or program) of your retreat and bring in other experts such as facilitators who are masters in their discipline (e.g. design thinking, storytelling).

You will receive an offer for one to three suitable venues that are reserved for you to pick from. Our offer contains a package price per person, which makes planning easy for you. In case you should decide not to book with us we will charge a planning fee for our work.


Hosting the event

On every retreat or event there’s one person who needs to make sure everything works out for everybody. If this is you, then you know what we are talking about, because you did not find the last event as relaxing as your colleagues.

That’s why we almost always join the teams on location. For the duration of the event we become part of your team and take care of everything and everybody.
“Gosh, I forgot my antihistamins!”, “ When are we off to the river rafting thing? Where is it anyway and how are we going there?”, “Oh, I forgot to tell you that I have gluten intolerance.”, “I really hate the room I am in!” Sounds familiar? Don’t worry, we’ll sort it out, while you just keep on doing whatever you came here to do. We love taking care of people.

This has led to quite a few fun roles over the past years. Here’s some of the roles we’ve had: concierge, private chef, facilitator, yoga instructor, photographer, driver, florist, librarian, actor and fire keeper.


What makes us so special?

It’s the love for details. The love for fresh, healthy food, flowers, people and great experiences. We’re always open to new challenges and like to enter unchartered territory.
