As his successor, Stefan Nünlist is following in the footsteps of the SGK President. Stefan Nünlist is Head of Group Communications & Responsibility and a member of the Executive Board of Swisscom AG. He began his professional career as a lawyer and notary before moving to the Federal Department of Foreign Affairs (FDFA). There he had diplomatic assignments in South Africa, Geneva and Bern and acted as personal assistant to Federal Councillors Jean-Pascal Delamuraz and Pascal Couchepin. He then moved to the private sector. After his time at SBB and UBS, Stefan Nünlist took over the position of Head of Group Communications & Responsibility at Swisscom AG in 2013.

Two new board members elected

In addition to the appointment of the new president, two new board members were also elected. Alessandro Bee is Head of CIO Macro & Strategy Research Switzerland at UBS, while Dr Fabian Schnell is Chief of Staff at the Office of Economics and Labour of the Canton of Zurich. The two succeed Christian Mähr, UBS, and Mario Senn, Office of Economics and Labour of the Canton of Zurich. We thank both of them for their valuable and committed service to the SGK.

The SGK Society

The SGK was founded in 1937 to facilitate a regular exchange on the economic situation of companies in Switzerland. Today's KOF Swiss Economic Institute emerged from the SGK. The KOF Support Association is made up of national and multinational companies, small and large firms, public bodies, associations and private individuals.

Become a member of the SGK and support the work of the KOF. Together we can advance Switzerland's economic development and actively contribute to forward-looking solutions.

As a member of the SGK, you have the opportunity to actively expand your network and exchange ideas with like-minded people. We regularly invite our members to events on topics relevant to economic policy, where you have the opportunity to make contacts and expand your professional network.
