If the product contains software components that need to be developed individually\, the question quickly arises: do it yourself or outsource it? How can an external partner help to save costs\, avoid rookie mistakes and support a sustainable growth strategy? \n \n To the registration\n \nThe event is organized in cooperation with the Rheintaler Gründer Netzwerk (RtGN) and takes place in Buchs. \nAt the service provider lunches\, Startfeld service providers talk about their experiences. At this event\, Solve will provide you with valuable insights and give you important tips in just 30 minutes that you can implement directly in your startup. During the lunch that follows\, open questions can be discussed and in-depth conversations can be held. \nThe service provider lunches are free of charge. Registration is still necessary. \nTHE SERVICE PROVIDER LUNCH IN BRIEF\n Date \nNovember 07\, 2024 \n Place \nOST – Ostschweizer FachhochschuleWerdenbergstrasse 49471 Buchs SG \nConference room 1414 \n \nREGISTRATION URL:https://innovationspark-ost.ch/en/event/service-provider-lunch-creative-capsule/ LOCATION:EAST – Eastern Swiss University of Applied Sciences (Campus Buchs)\, Werdenbergstrasse 4\, St. Gallen\, book\, 9471\, Schweiz CATEGORIES:For startups,For those interested in innovation ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://innovationspark-ost.ch/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/Beitragsbild-Solve-1.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Zurich:20241106T160000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Zurich:20241106T191500 DTSTAMP:20260903T180458 CREATED:20241018T124004Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251114T193154Z UID:10000334-1730908800-1730920500@innovationspark-ost.ch SUMMARY:WISG Deep Dive 2024 | SMEs and start-ups in dialog DESCRIPTION:THIS IS WHAT IT’S ALL ABOUT\nOn November 6\, 2024\, the first WISG Deep Dive will take place on the topic of “Creating momentum and impact together: SMEs and start-ups in dialog”. \nThe event in brief\nAfter an exciting introductory presentation on “Start-up spirit in SMEs” by Tobi Wolf\, WISG board member and co-founder of Online Doctor\, two very interesting sessions on “Success stories of cooperation between start-ups and established companies” and “Spin-off logic\, a speedboat alongside the core organization?” followed. \nAfterwards\, all participants will be able to continue their discussions over an aperitif riche. \n Date / Time \nWednesday\, November 06\, 2024 \n16.00 – 19.15\, followed by aperitif \n Place \nSTART GLOBAL Unterstrasse 69000 St. Gallen \n Program \n16:00 Arrival of the participants \n16:15 Welcome by the WISG Co-Presidium \n16:25 Presentation by Tobi Wolf (Co-Founder and CEO of Online Doctor: Startup Spirit in SMEs \n17:00 Two parallel sessions \n\nSession 1: “Success stories of cooperation between start-ups and established companies” – using the example of the cooperation between acrevis (acrevis.ch) and Kaspar& (kasparund.ch).

Discover novel approaches to promoting health and performance of the human body through the integration of textiles and sensors. This event offers deep insights into the latest developments and applications of textile sensor technology in healthcare. \nThe program at a glance\nExpert input : Textiles for health\, Simon Annaheim\, Empa \nDr. Simon Annaheim presents some of Empa’s developments that improve monitoring and therapy of the human body through innovative textiles. The interactions between materials and human skin play a central role in ensuring that textile-based sensors achieve the required precision and therapeutic textiles achieve the expected effectiveness. Their advanced technologies can therefore play an important role in the medicine of the future and enable a more comfortable and safer patient life. \nPractical input : Practical application of smart textiles\, Roland Zemp\, sensomative \nRoland Zemp\, co-founder and managing director of the startup sensomative\, provides practical insights into the progress of textile sensors and smart textiles. Since its founding in 2015\, sensomative has successfully translated these technologies into market-ready products that support biomechanical applications. Using a feedback system for wheelchair users that helps relieve pressure through personalized notifications\, Roland Zemp\, a biomechanics graduate from ETH Zurich\, will report on his experiences and the practical applications of this technology. \nActivation : Steffen Heinrich\, OST – Eastern Swiss University of Applied Sciences \nReverse pitching and challenge: Participants work in small groups to generate ideas. \n \n \n Date Time \nFriday\, August 30\, 2024 \n07:30 – 09:00 \n \n \n Location \nInnovation Park East \nLerchenfeldstrasse 3 \n9014 St.Gallen \n \n \n Speakers \n \nSimon Annaheim \, Empa \nSimon Annaheim completed his doctorate at the Institute of Movement and Sport Sciences at ETH Zurich in 2009. After a year as a postdoc at ETH\, he moved to Empa in 2011. In 2013 he took over the leadership of the research group ‘Heat and Mass-transfer’\, which was renamed ‘Materials-Body-Interactions’ in 2020. The group investigates heat transport in clothing systems and mechanical interactions between skin and materials to validate textile-based sensor systems for medical monitoring. Annaheim has published over 80 research papers\, presents at conferences worldwide and supervises young researchers. He leads projects in collaboration with academia\, medicine and business. \n\n \nRoland Zemp \, sensomative \nRoland Zemp is co-founder and managing director of the startup sensomative\, which was founded in 2015. sensomative develops textile sensors for a variety of biomechanical applications. Roland holds a doctorate in biomechanics from ETH Zurich and\, in addition to his work at the startup\, works part-time as a technical employee at the Institute of Biomechanics at ETH Zurich. \n\n \nSteffen Heinrich is a health scientist and one of his goals is to support seniors in long-term inpatient care to maintain their everyday abilities. In addition to suitable activation and fitness programs\, knowledge of the residents’ remaining resources is also important. This knowledge is often lacking and deterioration of their physical resources is also recognized too late or not at all. If this could be changed\, it would be an important step towards improving their quality of life and participation. \n \n \n target group \nThis event is aimed at healthcare\, sports technology\, occupational safety and research professionals interested in the latest developments in biomimetic membranes and textiles. \nRegistration\n\nThe registration deadline is August 27\, 2024\n\nWe look forward to seeing you!
