Take a startup deep dive an join us for lunch! The Venture Briefing event series is designed to help students, scientists and graduates with an intent to pursue entrepreneurship take their first steps towards building a successful company.

The event features a keynote speech from successful entrepreneurs Jonas Wüst and Waldemar Hoffmann, Co-Founders of Tethys Robotics and Liver4Life.

Since co-founding the project in 2018, Jonas Wüst has been at the forefront of its growth, guiding the team from a research-based project to a fully-fledged entrepreneurial endeavor. Jonas holds a MSc in Mech. Eng at ETH Zurich and obtained a CAS ETH Entrepreneurial Leadership Technology Ventures.












Waldemar holds a MSc in Bioengineering and a PhD in Biomedical Engineering.

Together with my strong network in the medical device’s environment, Waldemar can connect, align and guide people from different backgrounds to collaborate and work towards a common goal.
