The event features keynotes from entrepreneurs Silvan Bauser of Struckd and MyBikePlan, and Livia Zumofen of hooq.
Livia studied engineering and chemistry at ZHAW, and also worked as a research assistant at the ZPP Center for Product and Process Development. In 2023 she turned her passion for climbing sports into a startup, and co-founded hooq - creating the perfectly fitting climbing shoes, customized to the unique anatomy of all athletes. The startup got a great start and won Venture Kick first stage, with additional support by ZHdK, ZHAW, ETH, OST, Innosuisse, Sensory-Motor Systems Lab, runway, and Home of Innovation. When Livia is not working days and nights climbing the clifs of entrepreneurship challenges, you will of course find her at some rocky wall in the Swiss mountains.
