Oviva was founded in 2014 by Kai Eberhardt (CEO), Manuel Baumann (CTO) and Mark Jenkins (UK Managing Partner & Medical Director). Oviva's solution combines personal advice by a dietitian with a smart app that people use to record information such as meals, physical activity or weight. In addition, the app enables a regular exchange with the dietitian via chat and provides the Oviva user with helpful learning content. Longer-term, Oviva helps its users to lead a healthier life, relieves pressure on doctors to advise weight and lifestyle, and ultimately leads to savings for the health system. Oviva works directly with statutory health insurers and national health systems and operates in Switzerland, Germany, the UK and France. Since 2021, the Oviva app is certified as a medical device.

Startup Champions Seed Night 2017
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.
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
