Thirteen startups explore East and West Coast expansion opportunities

Swissnex and Innosuisse, through their partnership,  assist promising Swiss startups in building their network in global ecosystems and innovation hubs. The swissnex Bootcamps supplement the Innosuisse Intenationalisation Camps, allowing selected startups to explore the US market over three weeks. Eligible for the camp are startups in the Innosuisse coaching program.

The Fall Bootcamp – which started last week and runs until November 12, 2021, in San Francisco, Boston, New York and hybrid – features fireside chats, toolbox sessions and demo days. It also provides networking events to allow startups to connect with experts from swissnex's ecosystems to discuss important topics such as legal questions, investment strategies, product validation, digital marketing, and more. The startups also receive one-on-one coaching sessions over two to four months to help them reach their milestones.
