(MENAFN- Swissinfo) Lucas Rondez does not regard himself as an expert in anything, although his life story suggests otherwise. To pursue his dream he felt he had to leave Switzerland for China. This content was published on May 24, 2026 - 10:30 9 minutes

A member of the Swiss Abroad editorial team, I mainly write about Switzerland's most peculiar features and stories. After completing my master's degree in Asian Studies in Geneva (with a detour at Tokyo University and Kyoto University), I worked on the newsdesk at RSI, occasionally collaborating with Presence Switzerland during the Expo in South Korea and Milan. I have been working for SWI swissinfo since 2016.

Lucas Rondez's entrepreneurial journey started at the age of 15 when he organised a downhill roller-skating race in his home village of Bassecourt, in the canton of Jura. He managed to find found sponsors, obtain permits to close the road and invited participants from all over the world. The event was a success and gave him his first taste of being an entrepreneur.

“I absolutely loved it, as I was creating something from scratch and I could see the results straight away,” he says

The experience instilled in him a desire to broaden his horizons. The Jura countryside, meanwhile, is not exactly Manhattan, and his family was not the adventurous type.

“My father has never been on a plane. He's afraid of flying, so we never travelled much. Everything was a big question mark for me.”
