Update TOP 100 Public Voting 2025: HekeTiss, Precise Health, and CellX Biosolutions lead the Biotech field

The voting process has begun, marking the first update of the TOP 100 Public Voting 2025. Our focus this week is on Biotech, where HekeTiss, Precise Health, and CellX Biosolutions are currently in the lead. However, it's important to remember that the TOP 100 Public Voting 2025 is a marathon, not a sprint. We encourage everyone with a LinkedIn account to continue casting their votes as the competition progresses. You can select the 10 most innovative Swiss startups until July 20, 2025.

Every year, the TOP 100 Swiss Startup Award showcases the 100 most innovative and promising Swiss startups chosen by a 100-strong jury of leading investors and experts. The TOP 100 Public Vote runs parallel to the expert jury ranking and highlights outstanding Swiss startups that will be celebrated on stage at the award night on September 3, 2025.

This year, we will honor one Public Voting winner for each of the 10 verticals (Biotech, Cleantech, Engineering, Fintech, Foodtech, ICT, Medtech, Proptech, Robotics, and Security). We will provide updates for each vertical separately to keep up the suspense. This year we begin with the Biotech vertical, where a tight race is underway between HekeTiss, Precise Health, and CellX Biosolutions. Innovators in the Biotech sector are creating products that harness cellular and biomolecular processes to help improve our lives and the health of our planet. Discover the three Swiss Biotech solutions that have received the most TOP 100 votes so far:



1. HekeTiss: The biotech startup develops patent-backed, off-the-shelf allogeneic stem cell therapies to accelerate the regeneration of damaged skin and restore skin health. 
2. Precise Health: The biotech startup's mission is to revolutionize the way bacterial infections are treated, making treatment more effective and reducing the global threat of antimicrobial resistance.
3. CellX Biosolutions: The biotech startup is creating high-performance bacterial products to degrade hazardous industrial chemicals, leveraging a novel microfluidic-based tool to capture bacteria in remote environments capable of pollutant degradation.

The race is still wide open, so keep spreading the word! Startups can share the link to the startup.ch voting page with friends, family, and followers and encourage everyone in the network to vote for them. Remember, every vote counts! 

Even though there is no award for the most creative TOP 100 Public Voting tweet, we are impressed by your ideas! Follow the hashtag #TOP100SSU on X and LinkedIn to stay up to date on the results and see the creativity of Swiss startups!
