Elevate Your World
Cloud9 designs experiences that elevate connection, collaboration, and celebration — at the foot of one of the world’s most iconic peaks - the Matterhorn.
Whether for a corporate team retreat (collaborate), a private milestone celebration (celebrate), or a signature themed retreat (connect), Cloud9 will turn your experience into magic - as if you were truly on Cloud Nine.
About Cloud9
Cloud9 was founded by Sarah Inkinen-Fritz with the idea of creating experiences that bring people together through connection, care, and a sense of ease — moments that feel genuinely special and deeply personal.
Before founding Cloud9 Experiences, Sarah spent nearly two decades at Hoffmann-La Roche, working in global strategy and marketing, market analytics, and sales. This background built a strong foundation in strategic planning, project leadership, and cross-cultural collaboration — capabilities that now shape every Cloud9 experience with clarity, structure, and thoughtful execution.
At Cloud9, every experience — whether a corporate team event, a curated retreat, or a private celebration — is designed from the perspective of the guest. The guiding question is always the same: What would make someone feel truly welcomed, cared for, and at ease? This mindset informs every detail, from the choice of locations and the atmosphere to food, music, pacing, and overall flow.
Cloud9 was born from the desire to help others create meaningful moments that celebrate life, connection, and the people who matter most — in one of the most beautiful places in the world.
Collaboration is key at Cloud9. While Cloud9 is your main partner, the commitment is to creating the very best experience for you. So, when a specific part of your event can benefit from a specialist, Cloud9 brings in or recommends trusted partners whose expertise elevates the whole experience.
Whether you’re looking to join a signature themed weekend retreat, plan a corporate team meeting, or celebrate a private milestone, Cloud9 would be delighted to craft an experience that truly feels like being on Cloud Nine.
