What Engadin does

Engadin Tourismus AG is the official destination management organization (DMO) for the Engadin valley in the canton of Graubünden, Switzerland, headquartered at Via Maistra 1 in St. Moritz. Founded in 1901 and structured as a privately held Swiss stock corporation (Aktiengesellschaft) with 51-100 employees, it markets the St. Moritz and Upper Engadin region and serves visitors across four primary segments: summer outdoor enthusiasts, winter sports participants, cultural and wellness travelers, and families and accessible-tourism visitors. The organization is governed by a Board chaired by Kurt Bobst, with Jan Steiner serving as Brand Manager.

The operating stack is built around an integrated digital ecosystem: the booking.engadin.ch e-commerce platform processes accommodations, mountain railway tickets, ski school lessons, equipment rentals, activities, restaurant reservations, souvenirs, packages, vouchers and public transport tickets; the Tweebie digital companion delivers real-time guest information through 14+ touchscreen kiosks and a progressive web app; and maps.engadin.ch provides interactive tour and route information with GPX download and live trail conditions. Eleven physical Tourist Information offices span Maloja, Sils, Silvaplana, St. Moritz, Celerina, Pontresina, Samedan, Bever, La Punt, Zuoz and S-chanf, supported by the Sunnyside mobile app for iOS and Android. Payments run through Payyo (Trekksoft AG), analytics through Capture Media AG's fusedeck, and website development through SPOT Agency St. Moritz AG.

Revenue is generated primarily through commissions on accommodation bookings (with Interhome handling vacation apartments), activity and service bookings, and ticket sales; direct souvenir sales; and tourist information service fees at the physical offices. Distribution combines the direct e-commerce storefront, physical offices, and Tweebie kiosks with reseller partnerships including Interhome for vacation rentals, Rhätische Bahn and SBB for integrated rail transport, Mobility for carsharing, and Ming Bus for cross-border airport transfers. Marketing spans the engadin.ch content portal, social channels (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Vimeo, LinkedIn), newsletters, and event marketing across 50+ annual events including Festival da Jazz, Snow Polo World Cup, Audi FIS Ski World Cup, Engadin Skimarathon, White Turf and the Engadin Festival.

Direct peers

• Cortina Marketing: Italian DMO for Cortina d'Ampezzo, operating as the destination marketing and booking organization for a luxury alpine resort with Olympics heritage (1956, upcoming 2026), directly comparable to Engadin in brand positioning and event portfolio.
• Val d'Isère Tourisme: French alpine DMO for Val d'Isère operating the same destination booking platform, event marketing, and tourist information office structure for a luxury ski resort — directly comparable business model and competitive set across the Alps.
• Zermatt Tourism: Official DMO for Zermatt, another iconic Swiss Alpine destination with comparable booking platform, event calendar, and high-end hotel partner mix. Operates tourism information offices and a digital booking ecosystem directly comparable to Engadin's.
• Chamonix Mont-Blanc Tourisme: DMO for Chamonix Mont-Blanc, similar mid-sized alpine destination organization with comparable booking portal, summer/winter activity mix, and integrated tourist office network, slightly more adventure-focused but equivalent scale.
• St. Anton am Arlberg Tourism: Austrian alpine DMO for St. Anton am Arlberg with similar business model of destination marketing, accommodation/activity booking commissions, ski-focused event portfolio, and integrated tourist information offices spanning a single ski valley.
• Davos Klosters Tourism: Swiss DMO for the Davos-Klosters region with the same destination-marketing-plus-booking-commission model, similar ski event calendar (including FIS World Cup events), and overlapping premium hotel partner ecosystem within the same canton.

Broad incumbents

• Schweiz Tourismus (Switzerland Tourism): National tourism organization of Switzerland and an existing partner (Swisstainable program). Comparable destination-marketing-plus-partner-network model at the country level rather than destination level, providing strategic context for Engadin's positioning.
• Tirol Werbung: State-level tourism board for the Austrian Tirol with a similar destination-marketing-plus-booking-platform mandate over a portfolio of alpine resorts. Comparable in scope and operating model, though broader geographically than Engadin's single valley focus.
• Aspen Chamber Resort Association: US-based destination marketing and visitor services organization for Aspen, a comparable luxury alpine resort with similar DMO-plus-booking model at the destination level, providing cross-Atlantic benchmark for premium alpine destination economics.

Regional players

• Whistler Tourism: Canadian destination marketing and booking platform for Whistler, a luxury North American alpine resort with comparable ski event pedigree (Olympics legacy) and integrated booking/tourism services, providing a non-European comparable for premium alpine DMO economics.
