Why I built the Summit

The best investments and collaborations begin as trusted conversations in extraordinary places.

Now in its sixth edition, the Trampoline Zermatt Summit is an invitation-only gathering of founders, investors, scientists, athletes, artists, academics and operators, built quietly by Trampoline Venture Partners around deep relationships and long-term thinking. The room is capped at one hundred. Every seat changes it, so every seat is chosen.

The mountain is not decoration, and neither is the Matterhorn. Altitude strips away the noise, the air thins, and the right conversations rise to the surface. People leave with relationships that compound for years, not business cards that don't. And the Matterhorn is perhaps the most beautiful peak a summit like this could ever sit beneath: a 4,478-metre spire that points toward the thin-air frontier, the altitude where oxygen finally gives out and the body can no longer hold.

Among the voices in 2026: Professor Jonathan B. Berk (Stanford GSB) and Dr. Aubrey de Grey (LEV Foundation).

The room

Past editions have convened a ten-time IRONMAN World Champion, several serial entrepreneurs, and multi-unicorn builders.

Invitations for 2026 are being extended now.
