Swiss Economic Award

The Swiss Economic Award selects and awards exceptional start-ups on an annual basis in three categories: "Services", "High-tech / Biotech" and "Production/Trade & Industry". The prizewinning start-ups act as exemplars and motivators, encouraging other potential young entrepreneurs to venture towards independence. The prize-giving ceremony always takes place during the Swiss Economic Forum in Interlaken. Apart from the prize money (CHF25k per category) the winner will benefit from media exposure, access to the unique SEF.Founder network, in-depth expert feedback and simplified access to the SEF.Growth initiative
