At the University of St. Gallen, we transform initial success into sustainable, investor-ready growth. Our acceleration programme comprises two flagship offerings. The HSG START Accelerator Foundation, founded by HSG, START Global, and Switzerland Innovation Park East (SIP East), helps national and international start-ups professionalise their companies through a special funding programme. The HSG Scale-Up Navigator is a research-backed, step-by-step framework that provides founders, teams, and investors with clear guidance on how to scale up sustainably, covering everything from organisational design to international expansion.
