Bianca Gubser Keyman, Director and Philanthropist of Resilience Center and founding member of the David Lynch Foundation Switzerland (currently under registration)

Since her youth, her sense of social justice has been a defining characteristic of her personality. Being involved in creating a better world has inspired her in her years as a young adult.

With the transition to motherhood, she sought an additional challenge with a heartfelt project. She found it with the David Lynch Foundation and Resilience Center in the heart of Zurich.

In 2016, she learned Transcendental Meditation and became a role model for other family members who found a lot of well-being and work-life balance in this simple, evidence-based relaxation technique.

Bianca Gubser Keyman is excited to establish the high reputation of the filmmaker and philanthropist, David Lynch, with his successful foundation in the USA, prominently in Switzerland.

With her own commitment and fundraising efforts, she aims to be actively involved in support projects in the areas of education, social issues, and health. She is the founder of the emerging Swiss David Lynch Foundation.
