Strategy Copilot / Founder at CPLTS: Switzerland's first AI Transformation Studio
After a creative break in 2023, I relaunched my career by founding Switzerland's first AI Transformation Studio: CPLTS. Before I worked for more than 10 years as a Partner and Digital Strategist at Kuble, one of the leading digital agencies in Switzerland. Together with a team that is currently being formed, we are copilots for the human expertise in the age of artificial intelligence. In addition to my new role as a Founder and Strategy Copilot, I will continue to regularly share my expertise as a lecturer, moderator and panelist.
Expertise
Digital Business
In 2009, during the early days of social media, I co-founded an agency which specialized in this area. Since then, I'm always trying to be at the forefront of the digital shifts and trends which shape businesses (and societies).
Artificial Intelligence
The emergence of AI tools and systems is both exciting and challenging. I believe that more than 15 years of experience in the digital industry help me to be the right sparring partner (or copilot) to build up the human expertise which is still needed.
Entrepreneurship
I'm passionately starting, building and steering companies. Entrepreneurship is more than the work I do, it's a political statement as well in support of liberalism, accountability and self-determination.
Board Memberships
My professional roadmap for the coming years includes the objective to become a board member. Such engagements would perfectly reflect my expertise and values as an entrepreneur, digital thought leader and liberal citizen.
