The general public are well aware of The Ark Foundation’s activities in connection with start-ups – and yet this is not the main aspect of its contribution to the Valais economy. It provides active support for innovation by SMEs in the form of specific projects, the majority of which result in products or services launched on the market. These projects contribute to the dynamism and diversification of the fabric of the Valais economy.
You will find here a selection of projects from the fields of information and communication sciences. Why not have a look, too, at the Life Sciences or Energy and Environment !
