148th SICTIC Investor Day @ IWG, Zurich

​Kick off the new investment year with a fast-paced, in-person only SICTIC Investor Day designed to give active investors early access to the highest-rated startups remaining in the SICTIC pipeline. Each year, a number of promising applications receive high ratings but don’t make it into a pitch slot in time. To ensure fairness and maintain the efficiency of the pipeline, SICTIC hosts a dedicated Funnel Reset – an event built to surface every high-potential opportunity and give investors a comprehensive overview of SICTIC deal flow.

​What to Expect

• ​Ultra-Short Pitches (1 minute each):
  A rapid-fire format where each startup delivers a crystal-clear elevator pitch covering the problem, solution, traction, and funding needs.

• ​Structured Investor–Startup Speed Dating:
  Investors rotate in 5-minute cycles. A highly efficient way to determine fit and identify which discussions should go deeper.

• ​Open Networking & Deal Room Corners:
  Dedicated spaces for follow-up conversations, deal qualification, and connecting with both founders and the SICTIC team.

• ​Pipeline Reset:
  By showcasing all remaining top-rated startups in one evening, this event clears the path for the scouting team to focus on the next wave of applications.
