Seedtable’s take on Switzerland
By Gonz Sánchez Sarmiento
CEO at Seedtable
Zurich's tech ecosystem, the highest-ranked in Switzerland, is marked by a collaborative nature, with 515 startups thriving in industries like Hardware & IoT, Foodtech, and Energy & Environment. Key sectors such as financial services, ICT, and life sciences drive the city's $2.6 billion ICT spending. Despite its strengths, the ecosystem grapples with challenges in attracting talent and funding for early-stage ventures. Initiatives like Technopark Zurich and Digital Zurich 2025 foster innovation through collaboration among startups, corporates, and public institutions. The presence of top-tier research institutions like ETH Zurich further bolsters the ecosystem by encouraging spin-offs in robotics, biotech, and fintech. Record-breaking investments and financing rounds in recent years highlight Zurich's potent mix of talent, capital, and market opportunities, making it a vibrant hub for tech innovation and entrepreneurship.
