The Canton of Vaud is the charm of an ever-changing landscape : the lakeside flanked by palm trees, vineyards as far as the eye can see, wooded countryside reminiscent of a Canadian forest in winter, majestic peaks and alpine glaciers. A region also where culture has its place: numerous museums, an opera house and theatres renowned well beyond the frontiers of Switzerland.

Maurice Béjart and his company has elected domicile in Lausanne. At the crossroads of great European communication networks, not only is the region known for the beauty of its countryside, the wealth of its past and its cultural spread, but it has also made its mark in economic matters by becoming an important trade fair centre and a rallying point for the Swiss electronic and biotechnology industries.
