Innovation Forum Lausanne is delighted to invite you to the IMAGINE IF! Swiss Finals taking place on July 7th 2022 at 17:30 at EPFL Innovation Park Building D, room "Uranus".

In March, we selected a cohort of six early-stage start-ups in the field of life sciences and cleantech for our IMAGINE IF! accelerator. Now it's time to showcase their progress in our IMAGINE IF! Swiss local finals!

Here are the start-ups:

- Simulatory

- Autonomyo

- SeaStem

- NanoDecoder

- aiEndoscopic

- Bearmind

The event will be opened by Natalia Giovannini from the Technology Transfer Office (TTO) of EPFL, who will share valuable insights into entrepreneurship in the Swiss startup ecosystem and the support that the TTO offers to startup founders at EPFL. In a second talk, Greta Preatoni of last year’s winning startup MYLEG will talk about their vision of non-invasive sensory feedback for leg amputees and their entrepreneurial journey.

The six selected startups will compete in a pitching competition in front of a jury of four experts that have backgrounds in business and science. The winner startups will receive non-dilutive funding and 3-month lab space at Biopôle.

The judges:

- Greta Preatoni, COO of MYLEG

- Natalia Giovannini, Technology Transfer Manager at EPFL
