Western Swiss Tooyoo project wins gold
For the first time in Liipās Best of Swiss Web award history, a western Swiss project was nominated for the Master award: Tooyoo ā supporting your loved ones after your death. Tooyoo is a digital platform that securely stores the final requests of relatives who have died, as the death of a loved one can often bringe huge administrative challenges with it. Step by step, Tooyoo helps you to handle the administrative and organisational procedures which follow a death ā reliably, easily and intuitively. The platform breaks what is a taboo subject in Switzerland and helps you to organise your ādigital afterlifeā right now. The trend towards keeping online cemeteries as small as possible has been around for the past few years. Liip worked with Superhuit to implement this Mobiliar project. āIt is the desire to succeed together that has allowed us to develop tooyoo.ch. We are very happy to have been able to count on Liipās technical expertise and their product definition and development skillsā, says Julien Ferrari, Operations Happyender in Chief for the Tooyoo start-up. Tooyoo won gold in the category Innovation.

ETH real estate platform supports architecture students
Liip developed an application for the Chair of Architecture and Building Process in ETHās Department of Architecture. This includes an easy way of helping students to understand the economic mechanisms of real estate: how, where and under what conditions is it worthwhile constructing a building? These questions were all incorporated into the app, which also helps students to complete complicated calculations (building costs, capacity etc.). āMany students are afraid of our subject area because of the quantity of mathematics involved. On paper, completing lots of complicated calculation steps in a short period of time and combining data are very inflexible processes. Students can run into trouble in examinations if they make an error that corrupts all subsequent calculations and do not spot it until a late stage. The app helps with this, as modules can be revised at any timeā ā Hannes Reichel, a lecturer in the Department of Architecture at ETH, on the real estate platform. The ETH real estate economics project was awarded with silver in the Public Affairs category.
Migros working environment wins silver
The website migros-gruppe.jobs was developed to combine vacancies at the Migros Groupās over 60 companies in a single location. This job portal is aiding the Migros Group in an increasingly competitive employment market. The platform was created to serve as a unified port of call for job seekers. The aim of the project was to develop and create a new, exciting, comprehensive careers platform for the Migros Group that was relevant to the Swiss employment market. The job portal presents relevant, optimised information to the user in an easily comprehensible way. āDigitisation means that quicker reaction times are needed on the market. Launching a collective careers platform is the first stepā, says Micol Rezzonico, head of the Competence Center, Employer Branding. The job portal supports the Migros Groupās employer branding, and thus its marketing strategy, and won silver in the Marketing category.
