An Open Format Designed for Real Exchange
How do new ideas emerge? Often not through strategy papers or formal meetings — but in places where people simply start talking. With our new 2026 Innovation Mornings Event Series, the AI Startup Center will foster exactly that: open, informal encounters between our esteemed Corporate Partners and our Startup Members shaping Switzerland’s AI future.
These sessions are intentionally low-threshold: no big stage, no lengthy presentations, no strict structure. Instead, there’s coffee, curiosity, short insights into ongoing projects — and plenty of room for direct, meaningful conversations. Our goal is simple: to increase permeability between established companies and young AI startups. When both sides meet openly, unexpected opportunities and new collaborations quickly emerge.
Why Corporates Join

- gain first-hand insight into the dynamics of our AI Startup Members,

- better understand concrete corporate use cases,
