Based in the Lausanne region of Switzerland, Genius Loci SA is a startup active in the digitalization of heritage and hyperlocal tourism promotion. A modern, sustainable and economical recovery solution.
It is often the cultural heritage, the local stories and legends, or the encounters, which make the spice of a trip. Local tourism must be developed and modernized. Cities only promote a tiny portion of the places of interest on their territory. Too often with old-fashioned communication. Content is often static and one-sided. Generally untranslated.
Genius Loci offers the possibility of making these hyperlocal destinations finally attractive, at a very affordable cost for cities, communities, and even individuals. Our platform makes it possible to create thousands of interactive digital spaces, aimed at promoting Places of interest, and contributing to their promotion as well as their collective memory.
