Swiss Scaleup Executives Summit

An exclusive gathering for the executive leaders shaping Switzerland’s scaleup ecosystem.

The Swiss Startup Association invites you to the inaugural Scaleup Executives Summit: a highly curated event bringing together senior executives (CxOs and VPs) from Switzerland’s most ambitious scaleups.

This afternoon summit combines thought-provoking sessions with real peer exchange. Together, we’ll tackle the challenges that define the scaleup journey, from accessing growth capital to navigating politics, international expansion, and building enterprise-grade organizations.

The program features expert perspectives, executive panels, and interactive discussions, followed by an extended apéro to connect and continue the conversation.

This event is access only for senior executives (CxOs and VPs) of Swiss Scaleups (see definition).
