SEF.Founder
the founders’ community
The main aim of the community is the informal exchange of knowledge and experience among members as well as participation in the events of the SEF.Growth programme. A particular highlight is the SEF.Founder Conference, which takes place annually on the first afternoon of the Swiss Economic Forum and is considered the conference for founders in Switzerland.
Together, we want to contribute to the development of entrepreneurship in Switzerland and facilitate access to and exchange with multipliers from the ecosystem.
