Join us!

Our five teams have been busy prototyping their public interest tech tools. Get a first glimpse of the projects at our Pre-Demo Day. Want to support the next cohort in solving societal problems with open source tools? Apply to become the new Program Lead. Last but not least: save the date for the official Demo Day.

Join our Pre-Demo Day

We would kindly like to invite you to the Pre-Demo Day on 18 January in Bern. Our teams will present what they have been working on during the last five months. You will have the chance to get a first glimpse at the state of their tools and test them before the official Demo Day. We are looking forward to your feedback and ideas! Afterward, we will offer an apéro where you can connect and catch up. Please RSVP by 12 January.

Join our team

We are looking for a dedicated individual with project management and communications experience to continue managing our Prototype Fund (and possibly more). Become part of an agile non-profit, a fantastic team and a great mission: fostering open technologies by and for the people in Switzerland! 

Demo Day: save the date

More inclusion, sustainability and participation! This year’s projects will present and demo their prototypes on 23 February in Bern. Test their open source tools, get to know the teams and meet the community.

Happy holidays,

Florin

The Prototype Fund is a joint initiative by Opendata.ch and Mercator Foundation Switzerland.
