In a demonstration of their dedication to social responsibility, BDSwiss has entered into a partnership as the prominent sponsor for an extraordinary charitable concert taking place at the prestigious Presidential Palace Amphitheater. This event, known as the Telethon Tribute Concert, serves as a heartfelt homage to the enduring influence of the legendary opera diva Maria Callas on the occasion of her centennial birthday.
