A HISTORICAL PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN :

A founding partnership between the Claude Nobs Foundation and the EPFL Cultural Heritage & Innovation Center since 2007.

The Claude Nobs Foundation is sustained by the personal commitment and resources of Thierry Amsallem, its President, who hosts it at the Claude Nobs Chalets — a legendary place where, for over forty years, Claude welcomed the artists who shaped Montreux. Today the master tapes are preserved there, and guests of the music industry — artists among them — together with the scientific and technological communities continue to be received in the spirit Claude himself had established.

Since 2024, the Montreux Jazz Festival Foundation has joined this partnership for the preservation of its own archives from 2014 onwards within the Montreux Jazz Digital Project framework.
