This semi-annual update of the Swiss Venture Capital Report 2024 by Startupticker.ch, SECA - Swiss Private Equity & Corporate Finance Association and http://startup.ch/ promises an optimistic outlook, but this is far from enough. Switzerland needs to invest much more in venture capital if it wants to remain competitive.
In the first six months of the current year, Swiss start-ups generated a total of CHF 1,082.4 million in venture capital. This represents a decline of 9.5% on 2023. The number of financing rounds also decreased, falling by 10.4% to 138. But although the figures are roughly similar to those of last year, analysis of investment by sector and maturity level of the start-ups shows clear differences and a contradictory picture emerges. Although young start-ups from some sectors or fields such as AI and energy generation and storage are able to attract investors, late stage investment is in short supply. This half-year update to Swiss Venture Capital Report, published by the online news portal startupticker.ch and the investor association SECA in cooperation with startup.ch, shows that investors are more confident than a year ago. According to the broad-based survey of about 100 Swiss start-up investors, conducted by SECA, the vast majority expect the number of investment opportunities and the number of investments to increase.

Deep Tech Nation Switzerland hat dies direkt geteilt
How can Switzerland ensure that local #AI startups play a leading role worldwide? A question that 16 representatives of the Swiss startup ecosystem discussed with Federal Councillor Guy Parmelin at #SUD24. Key takeaway: AI offers new opportunities. #Switzerland, if it does its homework quickly and convincingly now, is well-equipped as a #DeepTech nation to continue its role as a global innovation leader. It was an honour to have had #GuyParmelin for a roundtable at last week's startup days. 🙌🏼 Thank you to the representatives who participated and shared their thoughts: Dominik Isler, Roger Wüthrich-Hasenböhler, Pascale Vonmont, Alex Ilic, Adam Said, Thomas Dübendorfer, Stefan Kyora, Hugo Flayac, Damir Bogdan, Melanie Gabriel, Rita Sevastjanova, Cristina Rossi, Stephan-Daniel Gravert, Raphael Tobler, Christian Wenger, Joanne Sieber, Annalise Eggimann, Paloma Bosco, Roland Siegwart

Big challenges ahead, but we are up for them at Deep Tech Nation Switzerland 💪 🚀
CEO Deep Tech Nation Switzerland Foundation | Lean-Agile Leader | Lecturer | Board Member | Travel Addict
🚀 Come on Switzerland, Wake Up! In 2023, Switzerland's total invested capital in Swiss start-ups reached CHF 2.6 billion. With Deep Tech Nation Switzerland, we are aiming to triple 3️⃣ (!) this amount annually. Deep Tech investments accounted for nearly half of the Top 20 investment rounds. Just half, you heard it right. Even more astonishing is that only 5 Swiss investors had a stake in these top-tier rounds. This is a startling wake-up call! ⏰ Switzerland has long been an unchallenged leader in innovation, but are we investing enough to maintain our global edge in the relentless innovation race? The answer is clear: We seriously need to step up our game! For more insights, check out the Swiss Venture Capital Report 2023, published just yesterday: https://lnkd.in/dtkPuMKa A big shout-out to Startupticker.ch and Stefan Kyora for orchestrating yesterday's fantastic event and to the panelists Pascale Vonmont, Maria Anselmi, Stefan Steiner, Simon Enderli, Philip Hassler and Silvan Krähenbühl for the great discussion 🌟 Let's not just dream about a more innovative future; let's invest in making it happen. Switzerland, it's time to amplify our game! #swissinnovation #deeptech #investments #startups #scaleups #venturecapital #futureisnow 🚀
