StartAngels Network operates as a non-profit organization that actively connects innovative Swiss start-up companies with a dedicated group of experienced business angel investors. It provides a structured platform through which nascent enterprises can access critical early-stage capital and invaluable mentorship from a network comprising approximately 85 seasoned professionals with diverse industry backgrounds. This facilitation helps bridge the gap between promising ventures and the financial and strategic support they need to develop.
The organization was established in 1999, driven by the foundational insight that Swiss start-ups could significantly benefit from direct engagement with private investors offering both financial backing and strategic guidance. The network's creation addressed a clear market need, aiming to foster a robust ecosystem for entrepreneurial growth within Switzerland by leveraging the collective wisdom and resources of its angel investor community.
StartAngels Network primarily serves Swiss companies exhibiting strong growth potential and a commitment to intellectual property protection, particularly those led by strong entrepreneurial teams. Its long-term vision is to continuously strengthen the Swiss innovation landscape by effectively deploying private capital and expert knowledge, thereby enabling the next generation of successful Swiss enterprises to emerge and scale globally.
