The 13 most promising Swiss ICT startups of 2025, according to investors

The 100 most innovative and promising Swiss startups are picked by a panel of 100 leading investors and industry experts and are revealed at the Top100 Swiss Startup Award. This year, ICT has 13 representative startups in the Top100 (including 1 in the Top10). We have also talked with Top100 jury member Antonio Gambardella, director of FONGIT. Learn more about these ICT companies shaping the future of technology.

The annual ranking of the Top100 Swiss Startups has become a benchmark in Switzerland’s startup ecosystem—and beyond. Every year, a panel of 100 leading investors and startup experts chooses the 100 most innovative and promising Swiss startups. Each jury member nominates 10 Swiss startups that are fewer than five years old and show the greatest commercial potential. They assign 10 points for the first place and one point for the tenth place. The companies with the most points make it into the Top100 Swiss Startup Ranking.

No worries about GenAI
Classic AI works like a construction kit; for example, the user downloads an image recognition module from the internet and integrates it into their application. Generative AI, on the other hand, is platform-based. A few US operators such as OpenAI, Google and Microsoft, and more recently Chinese competitor DeepSeek, have practically divided up the market among themselves: “The race for the top positions is already over – with no European representatives,” comments Antonio Gambardella, director of Geneva-based tech innovation fund FONGIT. But thanks to the local conditions, Swiss AI startups have a few aces up their sleeves: security in terms of data protection, availability and transparency. According to Gambardella, there is a lot of potential, particularly in highly specialized niches and the premium segment: “Our founders have good opportunities to position themselves in a GenAI-driven ICT world.”
