Hasler Stiftung Start-up Support
The Hasler Foundation may take a financial stake in start-up companies which demonstrate particular innovative strength in the field of information and communications technology (ICT).
- It has to be a young company with its headquarters in Switzerland, typically a Spin-Off of a swiss university. The founders have recently finished their education.
- The product of the company (scalable product / scalable service) is an innovation in the ICT-sector in itself and not only an ICT-application - even innovative. The Intellectual Property Rights required are held by the company. The technology, processes or services cannot be easily copied.
- The company is lead by a convincing team which makes a success of the company feasible.
- The market-potential of the innovative product/process or the service is clearly recognisable. A clear concept for dealing with the market must exist (proof of concept). The implementation of the concept has already been started through the company's own efforts.
