Microcapsules and microparticles are widely used to carry, deliver and protect pharmaceutical agents in drugs, fragrances in cosmetic products, and aromas or probiotics in food.
However, todays industrial microencapsulation techniques do not allow any control over the capsule size, leading to uncontrolled release profiles.
Our unique technique enables the industrial production of size-controlled
microcapsules, while offering precise dosing, controlled release properties, and an increased stability, all of which being 1000x faster than state-of-the-art processes.
Microcaps brings, for the very first time, industrial precision and control to the rapidly growing 12 bn-$ market of microencapsulation.

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.
The Venture Leaders - the members of the Swiss national startup team- have a clear-cut goal. They envision themselves as global players and want to take the first step to their global expansion. The ten-day business development program is specifically structured to help them achieve this goal.
The venture business plan competition takes place every year and combines a competition, learning events and contact form in one. It is an initiative of the ETH Zurich, CTI and McKinsey.
