The increasing use of renewable energy (solar, small hydro, wind) creates a large number of injection points in the power distribution grid. This new trend, although positive, has its drawbacks. The final consumer becomes as well a producer of electricity, causing high energy flows in both directions in an infrastructure that has not been designed for this. An uncontrolled injection of energy into the grid is a factor of instability. This phenomenon, which has already created serious stability problems in different European power grids, must absolutely be controlled.
An additional challenge is the emerging electromobility. The trend towards electric vehicles can be seen as very positive, but the charging stations pull more energy than what the grid can provide.

The TOP 100 Swiss Startup Ranking features the 100 most promising startups that are not older than five years and are selected by a jury of early-stage investors.
Venture Kick supports potential entrepreneurs with start capital up to CHF 150'000 as well as hands-on execution support and access to a nationwide network of investors and experts in the startup field. Multiple times per year, 8 selected projects get the opportunity to present their business ideas in front of a panel. The 5 most promising projects enter the support process. After 9 months at the latest, the startups incorporate and enter the market. Since 2007, Venture Kick has invested over CHF 58 million in over 1111 projects.
Being among the TOP 100 Startups in Switzerland has become a seal of approval for founders, and the TOP 100 Swiss Startup Ranking provides them with the recognition they deserve. As startups cannot appear in the startup ranking for more than five years after incorporation, the TOP 100 Swiss Scale-up Ranking has been introduced. A growth jury is asked to select the TOP 100 Swiss Scale-ups. These companies, aged five up to 10 years, show the greatest potential for further growth and represent the future Swiss unicorns
