Venture Leaders
Run in partnership with Venturelab, Venture Leaders brings 10 exceptional life sciences startups from Switzerland to Boston twice a year for a one-week roadshow. The program offers an accelerated learning curve and a solid network through exchanges with their peers in the team, as well as market exposure, feedback from investors and experts, and hands-on business development. Swissnex hosts two roadshows in Boston per year:
-
Venture Leaders Biotech
June 12-16, 2023
-
Venture Leaders Medtech
September 25-29, 2023
Biotech & Medtech Pitch Cruises
As part of each Venture Leaders roadshow in Boston, Swissnex hosts a pitch event aboard a sunset cruise in the Boston Harbor. Alongside a select group of local medtech or biotech startups, the Venture Leaders are able to present their solutions to an invitation-only audience of entrepreneurs, investors, and industry executives in the Boston life sciences ecosystem.
