Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Startup Tackling The Invisible Disease Affecting 10% of Women: Scanvio Co-founder & CEO Stefan Tuchschmid (EP#559)
Q: What's the funding approach and why mix family offices and business angels?
Stefan chose this mix due to a track record of successful exits that attracted high-quality investors who bring strategic value and connections, while preserving cap table control and avoiding early VC funding for as long as possible.
The Startup Tackling The Invisible Disease Affecting 10% of Women: Scanvio Co-founder & CEO Stefan Tuchschmid (EP#559)
Q: Why endometriosis as a focus, and how does the business model work?
Endometriosis is a condition with long diagnostic delays and substantial impact on patients' lives. Scanvio uses software-as-a-medical-device to enhance existing ultrasound systems, aiming to shorten diagnosis time while leveraging regulatory protections and OEM partnerships for scalability.
The Startup Tackling The Invisible Disease Affecting 10% of Women: Scanvio Co-founder & CEO Stefan Tuchschmid (EP#559)
Q: What exactly does Scanvio do in the ultrasound workflow?
Scanvio trains AI to analyze ultrasound images in real time, providing a second eyes overlay that helps identify potential lesions and organ structures during the scan, enabling doctors to consider earlier referrals and diagnostics for endometriosis.
The Startup Tackling The Invisible Disease Affecting 10% of Women: Scanvio Co-founder & CEO Stefan Tuchschmid (EP#559)
Q: So Stefan, who are you and what's your background before Scanvio?
I'm an engineer by training with a PhD work in surgical simulations, who eventually built Vertimate and now leads Scanvio. I've always been drawn to bridging engineering with clinical needs, and I've balanced hands-on product work with leadership responsibilities across multiple startups.
How to Thrive in the Swiss Startup Support Ecosystem: Pascal Stürchler, Wendy Jordan & Sam Dumelin (EP# 557)
Q: What are the top three advices for someone launching a startup in Switzerland?
Validate before you scale, leverage the ecosystem (mentorship and programs), and play the long game with consistent effort and trust-building with partners.
