More Than An Accelerator

MassChallenge helps entrepreneurs solve the world’s biggest challenges. From creating the world’s first peer-to-peer car sharing marketplace, to sustainable farming in shipping containers, to developing A.I. assisted smart eyewear for the blind & visually impaired, MassChallenge startups strive to solve the world’s most pressing problems and needs, making an impact one idea at a time.

No equity is taken, and through an annual multimillion dollar competition, startups are awarded non-dilutive cash awards, complemented by several in-kind prizes.

Thanks to its global network of accelerators and unrivalled access to leading corporate partners, the MassChallenge Accelerator Program has a massive impact, assuring entrepreneurial growth and creating value the world over. The facts speak for themselves: to date 1495+ alumni have raised over $3 billion in funding, generated over $2 billion in revenue and created over 80.000 jobs.

MassChallenge Switzerland is the Swiss branch of the global organization, with 7 locations worldwide. Running on a yearly basis, the four months program accelerates the highest-impact, highest potential startups, by providing:

• An established international community of startups
• World class mentoring from industry experts
• Tailored programming
• Unrivalled access to corporate partners
• Free office space
• Up to CHF 1million non-dilutive cash prizes, complemented by other several in-kind prizes

Take Up The Challenge & Go Global!

MassChallenge Switzerland accepts applications from early-stage startups across all industries. If your startup has raised less than $500K in equity-based funding, generated less than $1M in revenue in the last 12 months, and you are set to make a big impact in your industry or in the world, you’re the kind of entrepreneur MassChallenge is looking for!

After 2 judging rounds (in April and May), about 70 startups are selected to join MassChallenge Switzerland, on-site, for an intensive 4 months acceleration program (June to October). During this time frame, each startup receives mentorship from industry experts, daily workshops and the chance to interact with corporate partners such as BASF, Barry Callebaut, Bühler, GEA, Givaudan, Inartis Foundation, Nestlé, Südzucker and Swiss Economic Forum, to name a few. Last but not least, the winners wrap up with a share of the award prize money & the in-kind awards.

As MassChallenge is a not-for-profit organization, focused on supporting early-stage startups, the accelerator program often serves as a “validator” or “first step” for other entrepreneurship programs, accelerators & incubators. That is why MassChallenge works collaboratively with other such programs & organisations, with the goal of building a connected community of entrepreneurial support.

Why?

Because when startups win, we all win!
