Responsibility

LITASCO aims to play an active role in the community in which we work. This commitment is reflected in our long term partnership with renowned local institutions.

Since 2000, LITASCO has been proud to partner with the Geneva Chamber Orchestra, a first rank orchestra which has carved a unique position in the musical landscape surrounding the Lake Leman, through its development of a highly personal sound identity based on the historical interpretation of the works in its original baroque repertoire.

LITASCO is represented as a member of the Foundation Council of the Geneva Chamber Orchestra and supports its further growth and development.

Together with the Geneva Chamber Orchestra LITASCO is participating in extraordinary musical events such as the now traditional Christmas Concerts.

LITASCO SA is highly involved in several Educational Programs provided by different Geneva Institutions such as:

The Master of Arts in International Trading and, Commodity Finance and Shipping or the Diploma in Advanced studies in Commodity Trading provided by Geneva University.

Those innovative academic programs are developed with professionals and are conducted to best fit in with the demands of working while studying.
Students work part time, in LITASCO Geneva office and study part time.

LITASCO is also member and supports the Fondation pour Genève founded in 1976.

The Foundation plays the role of a real public service and is committed to providing various kinds of support in specific areas to the Geneva authorities in the context of the international development of the city.

The Fondation pour Genève creates, promotes, coordinates and supports initiatives that perpetuate Geneva's traditions of hospitality and openness to the world.

LITASCO SA / EIGER SHIPPING SA have taken pride in participating in the fund raising for such a symbolic and sustainable Swiss non-profit Association project.

For the first time ever, the global shipping and trading community has worked together during the Mercy Ships Cargo Day to raise support for Mercy Ships, an NGO operating the world’s largest private hospital ship, serving in the poorest countries in the world ranked by the United Nations Human Development Index.
