About the time in Geneva
Sunrise today lands at 06:44 and sunset at 08:32 local time, giving 13h 48m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (46.21, 6.13) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Geneva.
Geneva follows the civil time used across its region of Switzerland; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Geneva day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 07:00–15:00 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
