Swisscom Ventures

Swisscom Ventures is the strategic corporate venture arm of Swisscom, Switzerland's largest telecom and ICT operator, and is one of the most active corporate venture investors in the Swiss ecosystem. Founded in 2007 and operating with offices in Bern, Zurich, and Silicon Valley, the firm invests in early- and growth-stage technology companies across cybersecurity, digital health, cloud infrastructure, AI, and network-adjacent deep tech, with particular interest in startups that can leverage Swisscom's distribution, data, or network assets. Portfolio companies have included Cato Networks, Mirakl, Scandit, Digital Asset, and Exeger. Swisscom Ventures pairs well with the traditional Swiss financial-VC bench by providing strategic commercial partnerships, regulatory navigation, and European telecom channel access alongside capital, which is particularly valuable for founders in regulated infrastructure categories.
