About Scewo

Scewo AG is a Swiss technology company based in Winterthur, specializing in the design and manufacturing of innovative electric wheelchairs.

Founded in 2017 as a spin-off from ETH Zürich and ZHdK, Scewo is recognized for its unique stair-climbing wheelchair, the Scewo BRO, which operates on two wheels and allows users to navigate various terrains with ease. The Scewo BRO features a self-balancing system, autonomous stair-climbing capabilities, and a seat that elevates to enhance social interaction.

The company also collaborates with healthcare professionals and community organizations to redefine accessibility standards.
