Since 2015, the Wyss Zurich Translational Center has been supporting young researchers from ETH Zurich and the University of Zurich in the fields of regenerative medicine, robotics, medical technology, and bionics with mentoring, infrastructure, and financial resources. In doing so, the center creates the conditions for bringing innovative ideas from basic research to market maturity more quickly. The vision of founder and patron Hansjörg Wyss is to help startups better overcome the critical “valley of death” between research and application.

Wyss Zurich celebrated its 10th anniversary at the Kongresshaus Zurich. Life Science Communication was asked to support the communication activities. This included media relations as well as the design and implementation of a completely revamped website.
