Located in SICPA’s unlimitrust campus and now at the Campus Biotech in Geneva, Trust Village brings early-stage companies at the heart of a vibrant ecosystem, mixing large corporations, investors and innovators.

Nestled in the heart of Western Switzerland’s vibrant cybersecurity hub, Trust Village is an incubator program designed to foster innovation in cybersecurity and digital trust. This initiative is supported by EPFL Innovation Park, SICPA, and the canton of Vaud, and is strategically situated on SICPA’s unlimitrust campus and at the Campus Biotech in Geneva, with more locations likely to open in the future.

Trust Village is a dynamic ecosystem where early-stage companies, large corporations, and investors come together to shape the future of the trust economy. The Village offers a comprehensive package for innovators and entrepreneurs. Participants enjoy cost-free access to a 250 square meter collaborative open space, benefiting from workshops, networking events, and community gatherings.  The availability of tools, infrastructure, and technical support, coupled with on-demand mentorship sessions from industry experts, provides an ideal nurturing environment for startups.

The program is designed to support a wide array of participants in the cybersecurity and digital trust arena. It welcomes those with innovative projects or products, either software or hardware, that have been in the market for less than three years. The program is also open to ventures that can commit adequate time to fully engage with the offerings of the program. While having ties to an academic institution and demonstrating significant growth potential are seen as advantageous, they are not strict prerequisites for applying to Trust Village.

Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis by a steering committee using three criteria: eligibility, potential for success, and the benefits the program can offer the team. The maximum stay in the incubator is 12 months, with the possibility of extension after an initial six-month period.
