START Summit 2026

We will once again participate in the START Summit 2026, Europe’s leading student-run entrepreneurship conference. The event will take place on 19–20 March 2026 in St.Gallen, Switzerland. It brings together founders, investors, corporates and young talents from across the globe to exchange ideas, explore innovation and shape the future of entrepreneurship.

As a long-standing partner of the startup ecosystem, Lenz & Staehelin will contribute its expertise to this year’s edition by serving once again as a jury member for the Swiss Sustainable Impact Award and awarding CHF 30,000 in legal fees to the winning team. Our lawyers will also be present on site to engage with participants and discuss legal and regulatory aspects relevant to startups, including corporate structuring, financing rounds and growth strategies.

We look forward to connecting with the next generation of founders and to supporting innovative ventures as they build and scale their businesses.
