ELIUM

What ELIUM does

ELIUM is a Swiss digital communication agency headquartered in Sion, Valais, with a secondary office in Fribourg. Founded by Geoffrey Baumbach, the firm provides integrated digital communication services to Swiss SMEs, public institutions, and associations. Its service portfolio spans video production, social media management, motion design, SEO/SEA, digital training, and employer branding. The agency is positioned as a multidisciplinary "single-shop" for clients who would otherwise need to coordinate multiple vendors across creative, media, and learning formats. With a team of approximately five people, ELIUM handles creative direction, production, and distribution largely in-house.

The business model combines bespoke project-based fees with packaged offerings. Disclosed pricing includes structured digital training at CHF 290-690 per participant and a Canal9 co-branded package at CHF 4,900, indicating a mix of high-volume lower-ticket training and mid-sized project work. The firm markets to clients seeking integrated video, social, and learning capabilities and claims a portfolio of 100+ client logos across the Swiss Romande region. A multi-year partnership with Canal9 TV functions as a regional media distribution and credibility anchor within Valais. There is no public disclosure of external funding, ownership structure beyond the founder and partner, or revenue.

Operationally, the firm has expanded its service surface over recent years, adding digital training (including AI training modules) and a dedicated employer branding line led by co-founder/partner Camille Tapparel, alongside a geographic expansion into Fribourg. AI is referenced in client training and content but does not appear as a proprietary product or platform layer. The firm competes with other regional Swiss communication agencies and in-house marketing teams for SME and public-sector mandates, differentiating primarily through its integrated offering and its Canal9 media partnership.
