ThomasMarioVogt

My name is Thomas Mario Vogt, I was born on July 20, 1990, in Bern, Switzerland. I studied Business Administration with a specialization in Banking & Finance at the Bern University of Applied Sciences and later completed a Master of Science in Banking & Finance at the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and the Zurich University of Applied Sciences. During my studies, I also spent time abroad at Fontys University in the Netherlands and Deakin University in Australia.

Professionally, I have gained experience in business analysis and operations through roles at Credit Suisse, Centris AG, the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA), and the State Secretariat for Migration. In parallel to my career, I became deeply involved in the startup ecosystem, where I developed projects such as ValUbot, Still Active, and BETA. With these initiatives, I was fortunate to win several Startup Weekend competitions (which are hackathons that are less about hacking and more about the business side) across Switzerland.

In addition to my professional and entrepreneurial activities, I created uneinsam.ch, a platform designed to combat loneliness and foster meaningful social connections. This project reflects my belief that innovation is not only about technology or business but also about making a positive impact on people’s lives.

Outside of work, I am passionate about photography, hiking, traveling, strategy games, and exploring new technologies.
