genius loci venture winners 2024

Genius Loci wins the Audience Award at the prestigious VENTURE competition!

The startup competition venture.ch is the largest and most prestigious startup competition in Switzerland!

Each year, it attracts hundreds of startups, offering coaching and funding support. More than CHF 500,000 in prize money is awarded, underlining the importance of this event for the Swiss startup ecosystem.

This year, 329 startups from across Switzerland and at every stage of maturity competed over several rounds, judged by prestigious and exacting juries.

Midway through this three-month-plus competition, six startups (one per vertical) are selected to take part in a parallel contest: the famous “Audience Award” — the public prize decided by community voting, together with votes cast by the audience on the evening of the competition itself.

We are proud to announce that this year, Genius Loci won the Audience Award!

Presented at ETH Zurich, this prize is particularly significant for us because it represents validation by peers and the community. It brings not only greater visibility but also essential credibility for attracting technology investors and strategic partners.

Thanks to this VENTURE prize, we benefit from valuable recognition that will boost our visibility across Switzerland.
