The Swiss are back in the America's Cup for the first time since 2010 and Newstalk ZB understands they will be backed by Formula One team Red Bull.
Tonight's announcement will unveil the Red Bull partnership believed to be along similar lines to the Mercedes F1 involvement with INEOS Britannia.
The rivalry on the water is expected to be no less intense than on the race track.
Former Alinghi tactician Brad Butterworth is understood to be heavily involved in the Swiss campaign.
