Swiss Entrepreneurs Fund

The Swiss Entrepreneurs Fund provides venture capital and growth financing for innovative Swiss companies. It operates with a dual investment strategy, acting as a fund of funds and making direct equity investments into promising Swiss startups and SMEs. This approach supports the entrepreneurial landscape across various development stages.

Established as a 2019 vintage, the fund emerged from the Swiss Entrepreneurs Foundation's vision to bolster the country's startup ecosystem. Managed alongside Helvetica Capital, its inception addressed the critical need for growth capital among high-potential Swiss businesses, filling a vital domestic financing gap and fostering local innovation.

The fund primarily serves innovative Swiss startups and SMEs with strong growth potential. Its mission is to cultivate a dynamic entrepreneurial environment throughout Switzerland, ensuring local ventures access financial resources to scale effectively. This strategic capital deployment enhances the region's economic development and global competitiveness.
