What we’re about
Swiss Startup Community by StartupWize Ventures, is a community for founders, product people, investors, and many other random people interested in startups. Our goal is simple: to bring smart, driven people into the same room and let ideas collide. We believe when great minds connect, great things happen.
This is not a place to wait for permission. Talk to people. Share your challenges. Ask questions. Offer your experience. The more open you are, the more valuable this community becomes. If you have any ideas for the next event, reach out. Let's talk.
I heard that many of the world’s most successful companies started the same way. It is just people trading ideas, solving problems, helping each other, or just got talking at some bar. That’s the spirit we want here, from Switzerland to the moon and back.
If you’re building a startup, or want to build one, join us.
PS. My name is Abhiram. I stepped in as the organizer when I heard that Swiss Startup: Idea to IPO was close to shutting down. I didn’t want to see this community disappear, because I believe strongly in keeping spaces alive where founders and doers can connect. I started StartupWize Ventures with the mission to help startups thrive, and this group is a natural extension of the earlier communities I’ve built. If you’d like to co-create this community, please reach out. You are always welcome here
