BUSINESS IDEAS: PITCH & PUNSCH

DESCRIPTION

Do you have a promising business idea? Would you like to learn from other start-ups how to pitch the project to potential customers, partners and investors? Or are you simply interested in becoming an entrepreneur and do you want to feel the start-up groove?

At our event, entrepreneurs will share their experience in business idea pitching. Our first speaker is Nicolas Gasser, Co-Founder and CEO of IMPLANZ. IMPLANZ provides cutting-edge technology tailored for implant testing and surgical planning on human bone samples. Alice Fauconnet, our second speaker, is co-founder and integrity director at New Roots AG, a startup producing plant-based cheese, following traditional cheese-making techniques. New Roots was recognised as the leader of ‘Top innovative companies in Switzerland 2025’ by the business newspaper BILANZ.

Moreover, we will be having an expert who will talk to us about what makes a good pitch. Regula Buob has several years of expierience in coaching startups.  If you are interested, you will have the opportunity to pitch your own project in two minutes to the audience. At the end of the event, there is time to network and connect with likeminded people – with a nice mug of hot punsch and some snacks.
