Swiss Startup Investments - Weekly recap (17.04.-21.04.2023) - Week #16
The third week of Apr ‘23 features 9 startups and 1 exit. The Medtech startup Distalmotion raises $150M - the largest round in 2023 in Switzerland!
Hey there!
Welcome back to the Week in Swiss startups! In the past week, six out of nine startups successfully secured Pre-Seed/Seed funding rounds. However, growth rounds have witnessed a decline compared to the previous year.
I recommend taking a look at Elad Gil's blog, which discusses the upcoming reset in mid-to-late stage startups in 2023-2024.
Have a fantastic week ahead!
