🎙️ Listen to #devigier alum Alessandro Ofner on the Swisspreneur podcast as he shares the inspiring journey of Microcaps. Don’t miss out on valuable insights and lessons!
What do supplements, perfumes and pharmaceutical drugs have in common? 🤔 They all benefit from microencapsulation, of course 😉 💊 Alessandro Ofner's startup, Microcaps, has developed innovative tech which allows us to encapsulate ingredients safely and effectively. Think supplements with improved performance, ethanol-free perfume, and sustained release of drug components... the possibilities are endless! And so are microcaps' patents. (Just kidding: there's only 11 of them) Check out our episode with Alessandro, available on our website and wherever you get your podcasts.

🌟 Reflecting on an unforgettable evening 🌟 Looking back on our #devigier award ceremony, we're filled with pride and gratitude. This year, the judges faced tough decisions, leading to an unexpected yet wonderful outcome: six deserving winners instead of the usual five! 🎉✨ The sixth prize was donated by the Medien- und Unternehmungsförderungsstiftung FERS from Berne 💛 Thank you! And many thanks to Simon Ittig for taking us back in time, offering authentic and encouraging insights into his very successful startup journey. Our six winners are impressive personalities, each bringing game-changing solutions for our society. Let's also remember the four outstanding nominees who didn't win this time. We have no doubt we'll be seeing great things from them in the future. 🌟💪 A big thank you to everyone who made this event possible – together, we're driving forward the future of innovation and entrepreneurship in our country 🚀 🇨🇭 And last but not least: bye bye dearest Carmen Lamparter, to new adventures (literally - she's going on a road trip through Africa with her husband and young child 🚗 🌍)!
