Meet new people in Zürich
New in Zürich, or simply looking for new people? With S'Up you can spontaneously find friends, events and connection in Zürich, from game nights to sports to the semester party. No dating, just real meetups.
Zurich (Zürich) is Switzerland's largest city and, with around 70,000 students at ETH, the University of Zurich, ZHAW and other institutions, the country's academic hub. Nightlife clusters around the Langstrasse in Kreis 4 and the former industrial district of Zürich-West (Kreis 5), while in summer the lidos on Lake Zurich and the Limmat become social hotspots. Studying here means moving between lectures, lakeside swims and techno clubs and, in August, between the floats of the Street Parade.

New in Zürich? Here is how to connect
Zürich has around 70,000 students at 5 universities, in theory the perfect setup to meet new people. And yet the start in a new city often feels lonely: the uni groups have long since formed, and spontaneous meetups die in endless WhatsApp groups where nobody ever commits.
That is exactly why we are building S'Up. Instead of sitting alone in Zürich, you see in the app what is happening near you, join spontaneous events or start your own, from a casual meetup to Langstrasse (Kreis 4/5). No pressure, no dating, just real people from Zürich. S'Up is launching soon on the App Store for iPhone; until then you can join the waitlist.
