Thinking about building a startup, or looking for co-founders? Join the Talent Kick application session at the USI Startup Centre and work on your Talent Kick application with support, over an apéro.
Talent Kick is a Swiss programme that brings together students from universities across Switzerland to build teams, validate solutions to real problems and take their first steps as founders. Applications for the next round close on 22 November 2026.
Event programme:
- Welcome and introduction to Talent Kick by Marionne Blanco Herrera, only student selected last year from USI for Talent Kick
- Q&A session
- Working on your applications together, with 1:1 feedback
- Networking apéro
Who is it for? Bachelor's, Master's and PhD students at USI and SUPSI who want to turn a problem they care about into a startup, find co-founders, or explore whether Talent Kick is right for them. You don't need a finished project to join.
Please bring your laptop. Participation is free, with apéro provided for registered participants. Please arrive before 18:30, as access to the floor requires a badge after that time.
