Christian Gartmann kicked off the 'St. Moritz talks' in 2012, and entered a partnership with the 'Dorfverein', the local association for the promotion of St. Moritz. The talks take up themes that are currently highly relevant to the Engadin in general, or the St. Moritz village centre in particular. The St. Moritz talks are more than just panel discussions: the audience participates in the debates, the format is similar to that of a talk show.

Here, local political, touristic, economic and public decision-makers meet the residents of St. Moritz and the Engadin, as well as visitors to the valley. Depending on the topic to be discussed, either experts or lateral thinkers will be invited as guests. 

A selection of guests invited to the talks: 

• Simon Ammann (four-times Olympic champion ski jumping)
