Investment thesis

Kickstart operates as a launchpad for Swiss startups and a landing pad for international scale-ups seeking business opportunities in Switzerland and beyond. It matches carefully selected startups with corporate and public-sector partners to test scalability and impact through proofs of concept and commercial partnerships, building startup credibility via a track record of collaboration. A spin-off of Impact Hub Zurich, it increasingly emphasizes sustainability and circular-economy solutions, using the UN Sustainable Development Goals as a guiding framework when devising pilots, projects, and investments alongside partners.
