ABOUT US

The Academia-Industry Training (AIT) helps Swiss, Colombian, and Brazilian startup talents innovate and develop their entrepreneurial and business skills. The main objectives are to transform high-level applied research into market applications and to assist participants in advancing business plans, establishing contacts with industry, clarifying intellectual property issues, net-working at an international level, and fostering new partnerships and collaborations.​

SCIENCEPRENEURS

10 Swiss startups will be chosen to go to Brazil and 10 additional Swiss startups will be selected to go to Colombia. Two Innovation Grants of CHF 10,000 each will be awarded to the two most promising research projects/startups from both AITs to support market application and internationalization efforts.
