INTERNATIONALIZATION
TECHINNOVA IN SWITZERLAND
Techinnova lands in Switzerland: forges partnership agreement with Swiss tech hub Budokan Sagl in 2020.
But what were the steps that led Techinnova
to “explore” the Swiss market?
MMM (Medical Mockup Modelling)
Between 2016 and 2017, Techinnova spearheaded a major research effort involving Swiss companies and institutions: the mmm3d, a project funded by the INTERREG V-A Italy Switzerland 2014-2020 Cooperation Program.
Interreg Volunteer Youth (IVY)
Shortly thereafter, Technnova also announced its participation in the Interreg Volunteer Youth (IVY) program, an endeavor that is among the actions of the European Solidarity Corps.As host organization, Techinnova promoted the volunteer initiatives related to the MMM project, winner of the first call for project proposals of the Interreg Italy-Switzerland Cooperation Program.
Partnership with institutional players
Then Techinnova, in order to promote the introduction of its products-especially in the field of MedTech-into the Swiss market, established long-term relationships with strategic partners:
- Universities (Università della Svizzera Italiana)
- Foundations(Fondazione Ticino Cuore)
- Financial, technological and commercial partners (incubator Budokan Sagl; Dos Group SA; Algo4U Sagl; CE Advice Sagl)
Access to the Swiss market was also possible thanks to the gatekeeper function performed by the Italian and Swiss institutional players involved in our R&D projects.
