Introduction

When Deep Impact AG was founded ten years ago by Christian Fehrlin, a passionate web and technology enthusiast, it began a journey that transformed the company from a software developer into a leading venture company with an impressive 600% growth. Christian Fehrlin provides insights into Deep Impact's development and his vision for the future.

From Humble Beginnings to Technology Leader

Deep Impact has evolved significantly over the past ten years, not only in terms of team size, which has grown from 12 to 70 members, but also in the quality and scope of its technological expertise. Originally starting as a software development partner, Deep Impact now stands at the forefront of technology development in Switzerland and has established itself as a powerhouse in venture building.

The Transition to Venture Building

The decision to invest in venture building arose from the passion to work freely with the most modern technologies and push the boundaries of what is possible. This internal dynamic led to the founding of its own ventures, which in turn enrich the service offerings for customers.

The Role of Technological Progress

For Fehrlin, attracting talent was the initial driver, but it soon became clear that project business with clients had limitations in terms of scalability. Today, Deep Impact focuses on building global platforms that are both technologically and economically interesting.

Challenges and Opportunities of the Venture Strategy

Despite the risks, the venture strategy has proven profitable for Deep Impact, with external support for further growth now in focus. The globally oriented ventures – from Cloud ERP systems for the food industry to AI applications – demonstrate the potential of this strategy.

Personal Highlights and the Importance of Training

For Fehrlin, Deep Impact's successes cannot be reduced to a few highlights. From strategic decisions to international expansion and recognition through industry awards – every step is a testament to the strength of the team. He is particularly proud of the integration of apprentices, who bring fresh ideas and new perspectives to the company.

Looking Ahead

Although the future is uncertain, it is clear that Deep Impact will continue to drive digital transformation and the development of innovative software platforms. With a clear focus on scaling current ventures and continuously exploring new business models, Deep Impact aims to leave a significant impact on the technology world in the coming years.
