Our investment focus

We invest in start-ups that are seeking to create synergies with the CSS Group through their digital technologies that move healthcare forward. Our aim: supporting people in staying healthy, becoming healthy and living better with illness by promoting start-ups.

How we operate

  • Volume
    SwissHealth Ventures makes its investments in accordance with customary venture capital standards. The amount invested in each start-up should generally be in the range of 0.5 to 4 million Swiss francs. That means our investment in any start-up is usually less than 20%.
  • Phase
    We are looking for start-ups in the growth phase. As a result, we invest in series A and series B rounds. Ideally, the company will have been established at least two to three years ago and already have notched up its first successes. These include market launches, paying customers and significant growth.
  • Region
    We are concentrating on European start-ups whose products and services are relevant to the Swiss healthcare market or aim to become so.

We are shaping the digital health of tomorrow in the following areas:
