Syna shows in a practical way what is mandatory in the OR/ArG\, where there is room for maneuver and how to reduce risks with a clean setup.

Afterwards\, there will be an opportunity to exchange ideas and get to know each other better. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInvestors Day coming soon\nThe startups are accompanied by coaches from the Innosuisse-Swiss Agency for Innovation Promotion and/or Startfeld and receive mandatory pitch training in the run-up to Investors Day. \nDate & time \nJune 10\, 2026 \n5:30 p.m. – 8:30 p.m \nPlace \nInnovation Park East\nLerchenfeldstrasse 3\n9014 St.Gallen \n> to the route plan \nagenda \n\nPitches from the startups (including Q&A)\nStartup Fair and Networking\n\nquality assurance \nOnly startups that meet one of the following criteria will be admitted: \n\nInnosuisse Startup (Coaching Acceptance)\nStarting field funding package\nSICTIC – startup\n\nThe startups\n \n \nAmela Biosciences develops designed\, animal-free protein bioinks for reproducible in vitro biology. Researchers in cell-based research can replace extracted biological matrices with fully defined protein systems with predictable behavior and controllable biological function. By separating biological signals from material properties\, bioinks can be selected based on defined\, application-relevant parameters instead of adapting experiments to available materials. The platform enables reproducible results across experiments\, labs and production batches and integrates into existing workflows as a scalable solution. \n \n \nMOOST is a SaaS platform for energy suppliers that uses AI to translate existing household energy data into personalized\, action-guiding recommendations and automatic optimizations. The solution can be integrated directly into utilities’ existing apps and customer portals – without additional hardware or a new end customer app. MOOST thus addresses a structural problem of around CHF 26 billion a year by shifting electricity consumption to times when there is sufficient (renewable) energy. MOOST already serves 15 energy suppliers\, has strong multiplication partners such as Solar Manager and EVUlution as customers\, and is currently in large-scale test phases with E.ON and EDP\, two of the largest energy suppliers in Europe. \n \n \nadminity – The Operating System for AI-driven E-Government & Defense. \nadminity’s platform transforms fragmented data and domains into networked\, highly automated AI operating systems – for a secure and prosperous Europe. \nadminity creates the necessary tools for developers to make the vision of a networked\, AI-enabled e-government and military a reality in accordance with industry standards and legal requirements. \nTo this end\, adminity designs and develops new types of sovereign platforms and offers authorities and system integrators low-code solutions to integrate existing data and software into a new\, AI-supported\, service-oriented architecture. \n \n \nRAIIS provides the plug-in calculation engine financial institutions use to automate portfolio management workflows across PMS\, spreadsheets\, and proprietary systems-with consistent\, auditable results. \n \n \nIdunox is building the missing intelligence layer for early disease risk detection and prevention: a proprietary AI system that transforms blood and health data into a personalized 10-year outlook\, including explanation and action. Instead of static lab results\, the system shows where an individual’s health is heading\, which biomarkers and behaviors are driving that trajectory\, and how to intervene earlier. \n \n \n𝗦𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗹𝘆 is the first Swiss platform for the central management and automatic optimization of household contracts. The platform analyzes existing contracts\, identifies potential savings and suggests better offers at the right time or renegotiates directly with existing providers. If the user decides to switch\, Savely takes over the entire digital process at the click of a button\, ensuring permanently lower fixed costs. \n \n \nSkaaltec will be the Garmin of medical technology. It makes arm function recovery possible for millions who suffered brain injury and disease. With smart wearable sensors\, integrated AI-personalization and a non-invasive neurostimulator it seamlessly transforms everyday actions into effective brain stimulation therapy. \n \n \nToday\, our food supply depends on the industrial scale use of pesticides which erode our soils. As a result\, the EU is banning 50% of pesticide usage by 2030\, with seed producers left with few good alternatives. At Apolarion\, we use electricity and air to create atmospheric plasmas that replace pesticide seed coatings\, with equivalent efficacy but without chemical residues or reducing seed vigour. \n \n \nBoostpilot.ai: The GPS for B2B sales \nWith boostpilot.ai\, Scalvio AG brings merciless transparency to B2B sales – from the overall market with customer-specific purchasing potential and the resulting share-of-wallet to whitespaces.\nboostpilot.ai recognizes successful growth patterns of A-customers\, decodes them and transfers them to C-/D-customers with corresponding potential.\nERP sees the past. CRM sees activity. Nobody sees potential. Boostpilot does.\nThe result: data-driven decisions instead of gut feeling and up to +400% turnover from existing customers with 40% less admin effort.

Sometimes\, the exact opposite is the wiser choice. However\, a “no-patent strategy” is by no means the easy solution for those who want to “skip” intellectual property rights. It requires equally careful planning and a clear understanding of the legal situation\, one’s own technology\, and the market. Without this foundation\, there is a risk of losing valuable competitive advantages\, and in the worst-case scenario\, one’s own innovation may be adopted\, further developed\, or patented by competitors—with the paradoxical result that the original inventor is suddenly labeled a copycat. At the upcoming partner lunch with Keller Schneider\, we will explore these topics using real-world examples. \n \n To the registration\n \nAt the Partner Lunch\, Startfeld service providers talk from the inside.
