Your AI strategy deserves
an independent steward.
I partner with Swiss CEOs and CIOs to turn fragmented AI pilots into sovereign, measurable enterprise capability — without vendor lock-in, compliance risk, or capital waste.
NDA from session one · Zürich-based · Responds within 1 business day
Mutual NDA from session one. What is discussed stays between us — not anonymised, not aggregated, not referenced. Ever.
No vendor relationships. No reseller fees. No product to recommend. My only interest is the quality of your decision.
Strategic, operational, technology, compliance, and architecture — held simultaneously, not sequentially.
Every engagement produces something you can act on and defend — to your board, your regulator, your team. Not a report. A decision.
Three walls. One way through.
I partner with executives across Swiss regulated sectors when they hit these specific walls.
"Our AI strategy is a collection of buzzwords. The board is asking for a 5-year outlook, and we lack a plan we can actually defend."
Strategic clarity + a board-ready AI North Star.
"We have run multiple pilots that work in the lab but never reach production. We have a graveyard of demos and no real impact."
A turnaround path to industrial-scale AI — with hard EBIT-linked KPIs.
"Every vendor promises the moon. We fear overpaying for vaporware or locking our data into a proprietary cage for a decade."
Neutral risk review + Go/No-Go vendor guidance + sovereign architecture.
Discrete interventions. Measurable results.
Across Swiss regulated sectors — Finance, MedTech, and Telecommunications.
Regulatory uncertainty blocking AI adoption entirely.
Co-created a compliant Sovereign AI architecture. Approved roadmap in 6 weeks.
The board left with a defensible AI governance framework and an approved roadmap — without any vendor having been selected.
R&D unable to productise AI into a certified device.
Designed MVP-to-Scale architecture. Diagnosed blockers in 6 weeks.
R&D understood precisely which architectural decisions were blocking certification — and which vendor claims were unfounded.
Millions invested with zero visibility on ROI.
Delivered a strategy-led, value-driven roadmap. Cancelled external call centres.
The executive team could account for every euro of AI investment and knew exactly which programmes to stop, fix, or scale.
Five steps. Strategy, delivery, risk, and people as one.
Result: AI becomes a scalable enterprise capability — not a collection of pilots.
A service for every stage of the journey.
Fixed scope, time-boxed, tied to measurable outcomes. No open-ended consulting.
Independent. Rigorous. On your side of the table.
I have been accountable at every layer of the stack — from the research that produces the algorithm to the audit that certifies the control that governs it. I tackle challenges across five concurrent perspectives: strategic, operational, technology, compliance, and architecture. End-to-end, because that is the only vantage point from which AI transformation can actually be governed.
