The train ride from Basel to Zurich on a Friday night is wonderful place to be. Half the people are calm family types, smiling and say they love each other as they sit down, and the other half are pre-drinking Feldschlossen or some cheap wine, getting ready to live it up at the Zurich clubs all night or a party in Sissach. I’m calm and alone on my computer, recounting an amazing day at the 2011 Swiss Startup Camp in Basel . The day was a blast, a warm, invigorating tech-blast of knowledge and inspiration. http://blog.americanpeyote.com/2011/04/20/swiss-startup-camp-2011-basel-recollections/

"Facebook was forced to IPO" - NZZ.ch, 06/15/2012

Die jüngste Finanzierungsrunde für Evernote brachte 70 Millionen US-Dollar. In einer Stellungnahme von Ihnen heisst es dazu, das Geld sei wichtig für die Eröffnung neuer internationaler Standorte wie in Peking, Tokio oder Zürich. Warum haben Sie sich für Zürich als bisher einzigen europäischen Standort entschieden und nicht beispielsweise für das derzeit vielerorts als Start-Up Zentrum beschworene Berlin? http://www.nzz.ch/aktuell/digital/phil-libin-evernote-interview-1.17241728

Review of Switzerland’s First Open Data Camp on Datavisualization

After a lot has been discussed about Swiss open data at the opendata.ch Conference in June, Hannes Gassert, Oleg Lavrovsky, and I felt the time was ripe to bring designers, developers and ideators together to actually build something. We initiated a national two-day hackathon with the name make.opendata.ch , which was took place simultaneously in Zürich and Lausanne on September 30 and October 1 2011. We expected around 30 participants at each location, but were blown away by the response, and in the end over 100 people showed up.

Not only is Zurich one of the best places in the world to live, but it's also a great place to start a business. With its top-tier educational institutions, robust infrastructure, and business friendly administration, in many ways Zurich is the ideal place to launch a startup. There is a wealth of creative energy and entrepreneurial spirit in this area, but this sometimes gets lost in the perception that Zurich is simply a "banking town". Also, while there has long been an entrepreneurial scene here, it is somewhat of an exclusive club, and it can be particularly intimidating to non-locals, or aspiring entrepreneurs who want to learn the ropes before jumping in completely. We can change that! The goal of this group is to open up the entrepreneurial community, giving people a friendly and casual way to network, share ideas, and help each other succeed. http://www.meetup.com/zhentre/

The Zurich Entrepreneur Meetup Group (Zürich

Lately, there has been quite some buzz as the Greater Zurich Area is working on branding itself as the Silicon Valley of Europe . The entrepreneurs behind some of the most innovative start-up firms are young, dynamic and visionary. What they have in common is that they want to make people’s lives easier – one way or another. Despite its size, Switzerland has a very start-up friendly environment as no less than 10 to 20 world-class firms are established every year ! http://www.newlyswissed.com/?p=8987

http://www.greentechmedia.com/cleantech-investing/ Cleantech investors are commonly approached by very early stage entrepreneurs. And by "very early stage", I mean garage-based inventor stage. In many cases they're not directly looking for funding from my firm at their stage, but they're looking for advice on how to raise seed capital.
