Impact
Responsible & caring approach
Enabling and encouraging education for sustainability is our ambition! We bring together social, local, and ecological resources to develop durable and educational products.
We know we can not save the world on our own so we enable people to become more ecologically conscious. For this, we deliberately choose to foster Swiss allies who help us to come up with meaningful solutions.
Circular economy
Number of trees sponsored through VESA
Circu-what? Circular economy is about planning for a productâs entire lifecycle as a part of its design. The current system is no longer working for people, the planet and businesses. It is time to take some responsibility. We want a circular and collaborative economy.
At VESA we explore how we can re-design the way our economy works. We develop goods that can be âmade to be made againâ and power the system with renewable and long lasting concepts. Thus, we are committed to using Swiss resources, such as FSC certified wood, and contributing to biodiversity in Switzerland.
By buying our products you can support us disrupt the system together with one of our Swiss allies, Almighty Tree. This start-up plants trees in Swiss forests to diversify them with species adapted to climate change and to support Swiss agriculture.
Local & meaningful production
We stand up for social responsibility. Therefore, all wooden VESA games are produced at the Bellechasse prison in the canton of Fribourg.Â
The correctional facility enables the engagement of inmates in productive activities in the fields of agriculture, building trades, and stewardship. These workshops regularly lead to recognised and sometimes certified education. Through this partnership, we aim to promote the work carried out by the inmates in order to support them in their professional and private reintegration.
Contributive & purposeful partners
We are committed to collaborating with local partners and resellers who share our values! You can find them on the map below.

Human-centred & impactful vision
We are the Swiss start-up “VESA”, a non-gender name meaning “young sprout” in Finnish. We formed the start-up in 2019 with a clear objective: to offer educational and sustainable goods.
Having children in our entourage, we realised how difficult it is to find an intelligent gift for them. As we felt overwhelmed by the amount of plastic and digital toys available on the market, we decided to come up with a solution, and so was VESA born.
