Startup City Winterthur.

Startups und Winterthur: Eine Win-win-Situation. Als Teil des Wirtschaftsraums Zürich, wegen ihrer Nähe zur ZHAW und ihrem Spirit als Technologie- und Pionierstadt bietet die Stadt Winterthur beste Voraussetzungen für Startups. Diese wiederum bringen frischen Wind in die Stadt und schaffen Arbeits- und Ausbildungsplätze. Sind sie erfolgreich, werden sie zudem zu den besten Botschafterinnen für unsere Stadt.
