The ESA Business Incubation Centre Switzerland (ESA BIC Switzerland) is a nationwide initiative that opened in 2016, powered by the European Space Agency (ESA) and ETH Zurich. The latest cohort of four startups taking part in the incubation program is now officially announced.
This program offers broad support packages to entrepreneurs and young start-ups for exploiting space systems or technologies to develop their non-space business on Earth or using a technology from Earth for an application related to space.
Four Swiss startups were selected at the jury session in November 2019 and now embarked on their incubation adventure. Congratulations to Picterra, ReoR20, Synthara Technologies and Voliro!
