Radio Zürisee (or radio zürisee according to the radio's logo; literally Radio Zürichsee), is a privately owned Swiss radio station based in Rapperswil on the shore of the Lake Zurich in the canton of St. Gallen.
Radio Zürisee was launched on 1 November 1983 in occasion of the licensing of private radio stations in Switzerland, as one of the first alternatives to the Swiss government-owned radio stations. [2] In 2008, the station was allowed to establish a correspondent at the Bundeshaus by the Swiss government – the Bundeshaus Radio is airing for all 16 private radio stations from the sessions of the Swiss parliament assembly in the capital city. [3] Radio Zürisee moved in 1994 from Stäfa to Rapperswil to a location opposite of the Rapperswil railway station, from where it is still airing. In 2011, the Bernese radio Capital FM was bought by the Zürichsee Medien AG from Tamedia. [2]
Theodor Gut junior, editor in chief of the Zürichsee-Zeitung from 1953 to 1987, initiated the transition of his newspaper to a non-partisan forum newspaper, and the company expanded in 1983 to get involved in Radio Zürisee. [4] Radio Zürisee is owned by the Zürichsee Medien AG in Stäfa, i.e. it is organized as an Aktiengesellschaft having a share capital of 1,500,000 Swiss Francs, of which 77% are held by the owner. In 2013 a turnover of 5,29 million Swiss Francs was resulted. [5]
Broadcast in the Swiss cantons of Glarus, Schaffhausen, Schwyz, St. Gallen and Zürich, the radio station has an audience of about 220,000 people aged between about 20 and 40 years. [6] Radio Zürisee produces a news channel and location-oriented content. The radio station is very active in advertising, merchandising and is present nearly on every event of meaning within Switzerland. [7]
