WHAT WE DO
Have an idea? Have a startup? Looking for financing, expert advice, help setting up your startup in Geneva, or something else?
You’ve come to the right place.
With over 30 years of experience in de-risking the entrepreneurial journey, we can help transform your idea or technology into a viable product, taking you to the first rounds of funding.
SUPPORT PROGRAMS
We offer two programs optimized to support innovations at different stages of maturity – Initiation Innovation and Startup Support.
Initiation Innovation is designed for early stage projects that need shaping and de-risking before deciding to launch the startup.
Our Startup Support program is for more advanced innovative projects where the company is ready for foundation, or is already founded, and has a full pitch deck and engaged team.
​
In evaluating projects for our support programs, we take a comprehensive look at the novelty, potential and maturity of your venture. We’re proud to support innovative ideas and startups that have the potential to make a positive impact on society, furthering the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Just looking for funding?
If you need only funding for your project, explore the FONGIT Innovation Fund (FIF). It provides three different types of financing to Geneva-based technological innovations that have a positive impact on people and the planet.
Let us tell you more about how we can help.
In the videos below, watch our Head of Startup and Innovation Programs, Dr. James Miners, explain the FONGIT support process.
