Venturing Ecosystem
Collaborating with Swiss startups to help strengthen the entrepreneurial ecosystem
The Venturing Ecosystem Initiative works with startups, scale-ups, and other high-growth, high-impact initiatives to help them lead, create a strategy, build in customer-centricity, and construct a resilient organization that delivers to its customers, employees, and shareholders. Through our research, programs and relationships, we are committed to creating thriving entrepreneurial ecosystems. The annual IMD Startup Competition supports up to 30 startups per year. The IMD/Innovaud LeadiNNg to Scaleup program helps “scaleup hopefuls” navigate this difficult step. The Venture Capital Asset Management program introduces the world of VC to investors, family offices, fund managers and entrepreneurs. IMD’s relationship with DeepTech Nation supports Switzerland’s attractiveness for technology investors.
