Skills
with chess
Chess as a tool for better education, stronger communities, healthy aging and effective personality development.
Chess is more than a game. It is a space where people grow – cognitively, socially, emotionally, and even therapeutically. André Vögtlin & Partner AG develops and teaches social chess formats that empower people, unlock potential, and improve quality of life.

We use chess to foster skills that are crucial in everyday life, professional life, and challenging situations: concentration, creativity, problem-solving, fairness, respect, patience, self-regulation, and a healthy approach to mistakes.
