We jumped at the opportunity to sit down recently with Jennifer Webb, an Investment Director at Swisscom Ventures who leads investments in sustainable technologies. She joined the firm from LGT Lightrock in London where she spent five years building the innovative sustainable technology investment vehicle with investments in B2B SaaS, healthcare and education.

On the sidelines of the recent Tech Tour Growth 50 event in Paris, we recorded a quick interview with Jennifer in which she shared how Swisscom Ventures originally came about and what it has since become, insights in the Swiss (deep) tech ecosystem, why she made the move from London to Zürich, why she believes Europe needs more capital to generate scale-ups in the deep tech sector and other issues hindering the ecosystem(s) to level up.

Take note, European Innovation Council, as Jennifer and Swisscom Ventures would love to build stronger relationships with the EIC and learn more about its programs!
