YES Alumni Enterprises
Where Entrepreneurship Continues.
Carrying on your mini-enterprise or launching a new startup? YES Alumni Enterprises connects you with mentors, investors and startup courses and events – all in one place. Not another programme – an opportunity to meet the contacts that move your venture forward.
What is YES Alumni Enterprises?
YES Alumni Enterprises is an opportunity from Young Enterprise Switzerland (YES) for YES alumni who carry on their mini-enterprise or found a new startup.
Every year, several young founders decide to keep going after the Company Programme or other official YES programmes. Turning a school project into a real, independent business is a big step – and the right contacts are often missing.
That’s where we come in: we connect motivated founders from the YES Alumni community with people who can help them take their next step.
