From February 8 - 19, 2021, 10 start-ups will participate in a virtual startup bootcamp organised by swissnex Boston and swissnex in New York. The Bootcamp is held as part of the internationalisation programme offered by Innosuisse. The selected start-ups will use the program to validate the US market, elaborate a go-to-market strategy and build a US network in advance of a physical trip.
The startup bootcamp offers Swiss startups the opportunity to immerse themselves into the vibrant startup ecosystems of Boston or New York in order to prepare their US market entry or to validate their product-market fit before they decide to expand. The program offers both interactive expert sessions and tailored introductions to help participants embed into the local ecosystems. By offering virtual introductions to relevant stakeholders in the local ecosystems, selected startups can continue their exploration of international expansion despite the current Covid-19 situation.
For participating startups, the camp is free of charge. In-person travel will be supported once travel restrictions have been lifted.
