Kickstart is one of Europes largest zero equity, multi-corporate ecosystem innovation platforms that runs a scale-up program for later-stage startups with a goal to accelerate deep tech innovation. Science and engineering driven technologies have the potential to solve humanity’s biggest challenges. They require unprecedented collaboration between established organizations and the most audacious entrepreneurs out there. Thereby, Kickstart is committed to building an innovation ecosystem that brings high-growth startups, corporates, cities, foundations and universities together. Each year Kickstart brings around 100 startups to Switzerland to collaborate with key players for proofs-of-concept, pilot projects and other innovation partnerships. The program provides exceptional access to the executives and decision-makers of Kickstart’s partners. Being an initiative of Impact Hub Zürich and launched by digitalswitzerland in 2015, Kickstart runs 5 verticals (New Work & Learning, Finance & Insurance, Food & Retail, Smart Cities and Health & Wellbeing), an Intrapreneurship Academy and the Circular Economy Initiative.

Impact Hub Zürich is about the power of innovation through collaboration. We believe that one person or organization alone will never solve the world’s greatest challenges. We need to work together. That’s why we set out to create a thriving innovation ecosystem where people collaborate across organizations, cultures and generations to solve the grand challenges of our time (*as defined by the United Nations). We are a community of creators building a radically collaborative world. #comanifesto We believe there is no shortage of good ideas to solve the issues of our time. But there is an acute lack of collaboration and support structures to help make them happen. Spaces with all the tools and trimmings needed to grow and develop innovative ventures for the world. But above all, spaces for meaningful encounters, exchange and inspiration, full of diverse people doing amazing things.

Login, loslegen, lächeln. Denteo bietet die ideale Software für ein zeitgemässes Management von Dentalpraxen. Sicher, leicht zu bedienen und ausgesprochen fair im Preis. Das zahlt sich aus. Für bereits mehr als 160 Schweizer Praxen.

Wir von Panter unterstützen Unternehmen dabei, komplexe IT-Innovationsprojekte zu realisieren. Egal, ob Startup oder Grosskonzern: Wir entwickeln die für sie passenden Mobile- und Web-Applikationen. Wir arbeiten agil und sind technologisch immer auf dem Laufenden, da wir nie auslernen und Weiterbildung grossschreiben. Dabei suchen wir stets nach der qualitativ hochwertigsten und nachhaltigsten Lösung für unsere Kunden. Durch unsere Zusammenarbeit mit dem besten Coworking- und Acceleration-Programm der Schweiz sind wir pausenlos im Austausch mit der Innovations- und Startup-Welt. Unser Arbeitsplatz im Colab des Impact Hub Zürich – sowie an drei weiteren Standorten in Zürich – gehört zu den attraktivsten der Stadt. Panter steht für Transparenz, Partizipation und Konsens: Bei uns kannst du am wöchentlichen Meeting der Geschäftsleitung teilnehmen und mitentscheiden. Wir fördern zudem zeitgemässe Arbeitsmodelle, damit Job, Familie und Freizeit in Einklang funktionieren können. Sechs Wochen Ferien, Elternurlaub und zusätzliche Familienzulagen gehören für uns selbstverständlich dazu. Wir lieben den sozialen Austausch ebenso wie unser jährliches Offsite-Boostcamp, an dem du eigene Projekte und Ideen voranbringen kannst.
