How Swiss Post works with startups

Swiss Post's open innovation process starts with a foresight scan to find strategic collaboration areas, then defines a target vision, test environment and success criteria before running a pilot under real operating conditions. Results are validated with transparent documentation, and successful pilots are developed further, scaled, or used as references. Swiss Post asks that a startup already have a working prototype or a clear, benefit-driven concept before applying.
