VI Trampoline Zermatt Summit 2026 | Private Family Office & Co-investor VC Forum | Zermatt, Switzerland
A private room for startup investors who actively co-invest directly or indirectly in early stage startups (up to Series B). A gathering of single family office decision-makers, super angels and venture capitalists on the foothills of the Matterhorn.
Program curation:
This year’s program is being co-curated with Jonathan B. Berk, A.P. Giannini Professor of Finance at the Stanford Graduate School of Business, with a focus on capital allocation judgment and investor decision-making under uncertainty.
The Trampoline Zermatt Summit is a private, invitation-only gathering of founders and funders who value clarity, candor, and altitude.
Between 2nd and 6th Dec 2026, we return for the sixth edition with a select room of 100 people who make the conversation matter.
We return with a pre-summit residency (30th Nov - 1st Dec) for a select group of 20 VIPs above the valley. Two nights at Kulmhotel Gornergrat at 3,100 m with direct views of the Matterhorn and the night sky.

I will follow up personally.
This is not a demo day, not a conference, and not a GP fundraising roadshow.
Attendance is approval-based and limited to principals (family members, CEOs, UBOs, GPs) and angels with a vision and capacity to co-invest in early stage startups globally. VC GPs also welcome subject to contribution and approval.
What this is
Curated, off-the-record conversations with a small number of aligned capital peers
Direct co-invest alignment: I share where I’m allocating and invite participation where appropriate
High-signal, low-noise — built for conviction, not visibility
Who it’s for
You’re a fit if you are:
A family office principal (family member CEO / CIO investment lead with discretion)
A super angel with capacity to co-invest
Globally active, discreet, and comfortable in small, candid rooms
Who it’s not for
Intermediaries, placement agents, or capital introduction services
Advisors attending to source clients
Early-stage explorers or passive observers
Anyone seeking broad networking or public exposure
Discretion & expectations
This is a highly curated, private, off-the-record Summit. No recording, no press, no list sharing.
The Summit operates under the Chatham House Rule: participants are free to use the information shared, but not to reveal the identity or affiliation of any speaker or participant.
