“You benefit from the kindness of all the people that support you”
(Jensen Huang, Founder & CEO of Nvidia)
Asking successful entrepreneurs on how they scaled their companies to greatness, we hear a central message again and again: what mattered were the people they met, at the right time. For that, Switzerland forms an outstanding ecosystem, as many of the world’s most talented people study, innovate, and collaborate here to build high-impact ventures.
Venturelab teamed up with Innosuisse, University of Bern and sitem-insel to bring startup-minded people together. We invite you for our special Ecosystem Event, to facilitate exchange between entrepreneurs, corporate innovators, scientists, and students – focusing on three crucial challenges:
- Innovation with Corporates: initiate collaborations with market leaders that can provide budget and access to profitable markets
- Raise investments in Life Science: state of venture capital in the Swiss biotech and medtech ecosystem
- Grants for Growth: financing life science innovation with non-dilutive funding
