THE CIRCULAR ECONOMY INCUBATOR 2023/24
The Circular Economy Transition (CET) Incubator enables teams and startups to prototype and develop solutions contributing to accelerate the transition towards Circular Economy in Switzerland (check our Circular Economy in a Nutshell to know more about our Circular Economy vision).
During the program, the selected entrepreneurs work on developing their minimum viable product (MVP) and validating their business model, with the support from advisors, experts and our network of impact investors. Each edition of the program incubates 25-35 startups Swiss-wide split among cohorts in Basel, Bern, Geneva, Lausanne, Ticino and Zurich.
Applications have closed for 2023/24.

WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT?
During 12 weeks, the participants will benefit from several elements of support that will empower them to bootstrap an MVP and validate its market potential with customers. By the end of the program, the entrepreneurs should be able to stop looking at their startup as a side-project and more as their full-time job.
The entire support services provided by the CE Incubator have a value of CHF 15.000 per team. The CE Incubator has a zero equity and fees policy. This means you will not be charged anything for your participation in the incubator and the idea you develop stays entirely yours
