Hi there,
Considering the investment activity in Switzerland over the past four weeks, I took the initiative to enhance the engagement of my latest newsletter. Last week, I conducted a poll which garnered 21 insightful responses. The poll yielded the following outcomes:
Question: When do you think investments in Swiss startups will start to increase again?
38% of respondents are optimistic about an uptick in investment activity during Q4 '23.
24% of respondents foresee an increase in investment activity by Q1 '24.
24% of respondents expect investment activity to regain momentum by Q2 '24.
14% of respondents believe that investment activity might not accelerate until after Q2 '24.
To further enrich the dataset, I am in the process of launching a fresh poll on LinkedIn. Stay connected for more updates!
Talk soon,
Gian
