Switzerland is not in the part of the world that is experiencing massive population and productivity increase.

Their power is in decentralization, where the issues of a commune are efficiently resolved by local authorities who are the part of it. Another thing, they have strong universities, with good connection between science and innovations. When I checked their startups, a large share of them focussed on advanced science or tech. They also attract our (German) best specialists, particularly, doctors :)
