10 Venture Leaders Deeptech will accelerate their global expansion during their international roadshow
The Swiss National Startup Team has 10 new members: 10 Venture Leaders Deeptech were selected for their international roadshow. As part of the Venture Leaders program, the team will showcase Switzerland’s deeptech expertise and lay the foundation for global growth. Pitching in front of international investors, networking with experts and industry leaders, and learning from each other’s entrepreneurial experience will ensure the startups get ready for internationalization and fundraising success. Venture Leaders Deeptech 2021 is organized by Venturelab. The roadshow and any related events are supported by swissnex, EPF Lausanne, ETH Zurich, Helbling Group, Walder Wyss, the Canton of Vaud, and the Canton of Zurich.
The Venture Leaders are ready to take the first step toward their international expansion. The investor and business development roadshows for Swiss startups are specifically structured to help them achieve this goal. “The Venture Leaders Deeptech 2021 offer solutions for complex issues that will transform our future,” said Jordi Montserrat, managing partner at Venturelab. “Earlier this month, our alumn Climeworks launched the first industrial CO2 air capture and storage plant, so we are excited to provide this new generation of deeptech pioneers with experience and contacts to boost their ability to achieve their visions.”A jury of professional investors and deeptech experts reviewed more than 100 applications and chose the 10 Venture Leaders Deeptech 2021. During the roadshow, the startups will demonstrate the potential of Switzerland’s deeptech innovation—covering a range of topics such as engineering, robotics, supply chains, logistics, and sustainability.
Venturelab organizes global roadshows with the Swiss National Startup Team: For the past 16 years, the Swiss National Startup Team has traveled to Boston to discover the entrepreneurial scene of the United States of America. In 2014, the Venture Leaders roadshow extended to China and New York and then added Silicon Valley in 2017 and Barcelona in 2019. Venture Leaders Deeptech alumni comprise successful startups such as Dacuda (acquired by Magic Leap), Astrocast (IPO 2021), Climeworks, Flyability, and Technis. “Venture Leaders is a program that promotes Swiss startups and innovations in such a unique way: bringing the founders of startups to pitch and connect to the ecosystem there,” said Zhenzhon Su, co-founder and CEO of Fixposition.
