What an inspiring afternoon at the EPFL Investor Day 2025 at the SwissTech Convention Center in Lausanne.
Opening remarks from Anna Fontcuberta i Morral (President of EPFL), Yves Felder (UBS) and Raphaël Conz (SPEI, Canton of Vaud), setting the tone on the challenges and ambitions shaping the future of innovation in Switzerland and Europe.
Keynote by Dr. Burkhard P. Varnholt (UBS) — a sharp look at how global shifts are reshaping venture investment and fundraising strategies.
Patrick Hertzog (Co-Founder of Nexthink) shared one of the most memorable sessions of the day — honest lessons from a long, non-linear journey of building Nexthink from a university spinout into a USD 3 billion global leader. A masterclass in persistence, strategic clarity, and long-term resilience.
A strong panel on “Deeptech in the Global Arena – What It Takes to Win” with Simone de Montmollin, Nicolas Autret, Alexis Houssou, moderated by Jordi Montserrat — balancing perspectives from government, investors, and founders around what Europe must do to stay competitive and scale deep-tech competitiveness globally.
Always inspiring to be surrounded by people building the future.
For us at ComplianceRT, events like this reinforce how critical strong ecosystems are — innovation, trust, technology, and compliance are increasingly interdependent. And the opportunities ahead are significant.
Thanks to EPFL and all speakers and partners involved for a great program.
