Tick. Tick. Boom. ⏱️
We flipped the script at Swiss Startup Days: instead of founders pitching, the investors took the hot seat and their own portfolio startups asked the questions.
No polish, no pre-approved answers. Just real questions, real reactions, and the room deciding who handled it best.

Because a great investor is far mir than capital. They are experienced advisors whose input can be decisive when things get hard. But that only works if the relationship is honest and unfiltered from day one. 🚀

This is what it looks like when we lift each other up 🚀Collective Gathering 2026 💜 One day to celebrate and champion female entrepreneurship in Switzerland, surrounded by the founders and investors driving it forward.

Friederike von Waldenfels on reinvention, Christa Bösch on building their own way, and founders getting refreshingly real about product-market fit.

Thank you to every single one who made this day so special!

The best investor conversations don’t happen in pitch meetings. They happen over tacos & drinks 🌮🍸

I’m excited to announce a new format we’ve been building together with and :

Tacos & Traction is a curated evening that brings early-stage founders and investors together - before the formal process begins. No agenda, no pressure. Just the kind of genuine conversations that make everything that comes after easier.🚀

Here’s the thing: We know what a strong pitch looks like. But the founders who really stand out? They’re the ones who’ve already built trust, context, and a real relationship long before they walk into the room.

How it works: Startups apply with a short description of their venture. We then carefully curate the guest list to make sure every conversation in the room is worth having.

📍 , Zurich
📅 Tuesday, 28 April | 17:30–19:30

It’s no secret that Switzerland has world-class founders. What’s less talked about? How many of them are still navigating this ecosystem without the right people in their corner.

That’s the gap the Collective Gathering was built to close. And on 20 May in Bern, the community comes together again.

We’re proud to support an event that doesn’t just talk about a more inclusive startup ecosystem - but actively builds it. 🚀

Diverse teams. Honest conversations. The right rooms.
This year’s program brings together founders, investors and enablers for an afternoon of real talk including a session on „Hard Decisions, Hard Pivots“ moderated by our very own ❤️

If you’re part of Switzerland’s startup world this is the afternoon to be at.
