Green Digital

What Green Digital does

Green Digital, operating as Green Digital Lab, is a Switzerland-based professional training and advisory platform founded in 2009 and headquartered in Savigny. The company targets communication professionals, organizations, institutions, and associations across Switzerland and the broader French-speaking market, with a curriculum focused on responsible communication, generative AI usage in communication workflows, digital sobriety, and web eco-design combined with accessibility. Its core offerings are three structured training modules — covering responsible communication strategy, responsible generative AI usage, and digital sobriety / eco-design — together with a curated resource library of practical tools (EcoIndex, WAVE, Lighthouse) and regulatory references (RGESN, AI Act, European Accessibility Act).

The underlying platform is not a proprietary technology product; it is built on curated third-party tools, regulatory documentation, and proprietary training content authored by the company. The company does not disclose any underlying software architecture, APIs, or technical infrastructure beyond a standard content website with contact-form-based lead capture. Recent evolution from the original Green Digital agency identity to the Green Digital Lab training-platform positioning (around 2024) reflects a deliberate productization of the firm's expertise into repeatable, modular training offerings.

The business model is professional services revenue generated through paid training delivery and advisory engagements, acquired via content marketing, thought-leadership publishing, and direct inbound inquiries through the company website. No public pricing, no disclosed customer logos, no headcount, and no funding history are available; the company appears to operate as a small, founder-led boutique without external investment. Revenue mechanics are not transparent, and the addressable market is a regional Francophone niche rather than a globally scalable software opportunity.
