This is a significant moment for USBA as we played a key role in organizing this historic moment. Ukrainian-Swiss Business Association is truly building bridges, connecting thriving entrepreneurial ecosystems.
Moreover, this could never have happened without our partner who became a sponsor – KUNA Pay – the cryptocurrency payment service. Kuna is determined to be at the forefront and sponsoring this movement.
The first official Ukrainian delegation included eight startups that presented the country’s innovation ecosystem at the largest Swiss event for startups and technologies:
- Awertise is a SaaS platform that pioneers performance-oriented advertising and analytics in the streaming services market.
- CheckEye is an artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) technology for mass screening of chronic diseases and their complications.

S.lab became the first in the Early-stage startups category and won 5,000 CHF, and CheckEye took third place in the pitch and received a prize of 2,000 CHF.
