Why Swiss Venture Capital? - Switzerland constitutes an interesting VC pool
- Even in the current down turn Swiss VC investments in Life Science show steady volumes and actually increases relative other segments
- The VCs see a problem in the low “deal flow” i.e. a lack of interesting business venture
- The Swiss VCs invest 90% of their capital (that is to a relative high degree foreign capital) in European ventures. Historically, however investments in Swedish entities have not been substantial
