Many (if not the majority) Swiss List readers are living aboard and have plans
to stay aboard for a couple of years. So preoccupations are how to stay, work
(visa problems... and if you know the US, the administration is... well... not
so well organized) and survive the US food (if you taste the california cheese,
you would drive miles to buy some Gruyere!) :-)
It's also quite difficult to talk about the Swiss VCs and the Swiss
entrepreneurship climate as it is relatively new in Switzerland. But I don't
say that I am not interested in this topic.
My 2 cents

taking risks on one hand and lets Swiss enterpreneurs be cautious and therefore
slow on the other hand.
This is not necessarily a bad thing - I think, the market in Switzerland
concerning venture capitalists is healthier and not overloaded.
