«The coaching, the workshops, the pitch opportunities; the whole STAGE UP process gave us a lot of new inputs. It allowed us to refine our allergy test and our strategy. For us it was a fantastic experience, a great opportunity to build a broad network inside and outside the Swiss startup scene and to popularize our technology.»

The CAS in Entrepreneurship vividly demonstrates how entrepreneurship should be lived today. The clearly structured program units, the high practical relevance and, of course, the top-class speakers, who all know what they are talking about, offer a unique mixture of science and practical experience. A unique opportunity for further education!

In contrast to traditional school life, this training offers a unique atmosphere in which science, business and politics meet for exchange. The learning content is of the highest quality, and the training delivers an excellent balance between theoretical and practical knowledge. It not only refreshed my basic knowledge in an application-oriented way, but also expanded my network and helped me make concrete decisions in my career.
