In 1990 I graduated with a Master Degree in Business Administration at the University of Fribourg (CH).

Shortly thereafter I became Professor for Finance at SEBA Bern (School of Economics & Business Admin) which is part of the University of Applied Sciences in Bern.

From 2000 until 2002 I was appointed as CEO of a Swiss Venture Capital Company.

In spring 2002 I joined CTI Start-up as Project leader to build up the Financial & Investor Support for Swiss High Start-up Companies (www.ctistartup.ch) before leaving in 2014.

In addition, in 2003 we founded Swiss Startup Invest (formerly CTI Invest), the leading financing platform for Swiss High Tech Start-ups and I am still the Managing Director (www.swiss-startup-invest.ch).

For more than 10 years I have been teaching Entrepreneurship classes at several Universities and Institutes in Switzerland (Venturelab, ETH, Uni Bern).

Furthermore in 2009 I took over as Managing Director of the W.A. de Vigier Foundation before leaving in 2015.(www.devigier.ch).

In 2010 I initiated the Swiss Hightech News Portal and act now as the Vize-Chairman. (www.startupticker.ch).

In March 2017 I created the dedicated website Pitching.ch in order to support projects in their pitching efforts. (www.pitching.ch).
