Mathias Ruch and the business of bringing people together
Before CV VC and CV Labs, Mathias Ruch helped turn a software startup into an award-winning television show. His route from Bern to Crypto Valley runs through a familiar question: what happens when the right people meet?
CV Labs puts a price on getting in the room

Open Mineral
Open Mineral is a Swiss-based, AI-driven metals trading firm and digital marketplace that connects miners, smelters, and traders to buy and sell physical metal raw materials - such as copper, zinc, lead, gold and silver concentrates - directly and transparently. Founded in 2017 by former Glencore traders, the company pairs a physical trading desk with proprietary data and pricing algorithms to digitize a historically opaque, relationship-driven industry, and has onboarded hundreds of mining and metals companies across dozens of countries.
