Wyss Zurich Foundation – Our Work

Our work

The Foundation supports and pursues the efficient translation and the technology transfer of scientific findings into medical applications ("from bench to bedside") and innovative products ("inventions to commercial product") for the benefit of mankind and the environment.

The aim is to select and promote outstanding projects that meet the qualification criteria required for successful translation or technology transfer and have entrepreneurial potential. In particular, clinical studies are also supported ("first-in-man studies"). For a project overview and details on the application and selection process please visit the website of the
