Our host Jo Fahy is joined by swissinfo.ch's business and tech specialist Matthew Allen to unpack what’s being proposed near Zurich, why it’s still at the conceptual phase, and what it could mean for Switzerland's semiconductor industry as glo... ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-swiss-connection-1071732/episodes/building-a-swiss-fablab-the-future-of-switzerland-s-semiconductor-strategy/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-swiss-connection-1071732/building-a-swiss-fablab-the-future-of-switzerland-s-semiconductor-strategy.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
