Hosco is one of the most promising digital startups in Switzerland. The Hosco platform connects students and alumni of the best hotelier schools with the professional hospitality world.

The startup was only composed of its two founders when Akiden Ventures started to support the project. With more than 80 employees in its offices in Geneva, Barcelona and Dubai, Hosco is currently in full development.
