As a deep-tech entrepreneur and CEO, I have over 17 years of hands-on experience leading interdisciplinary technologies from concept to successful market exit. My background in innovation is supported by 6 patents, 10 publications in peer-reviewed scientific journals, and 14 international conference proceedings. I co-founded Lunaphore in 2013 and served as CEO, guiding the company from its initial idea to its acquisition by Bio-Techne Corporation in 2023. During this 10-year journey, we raised over CHF 80 million in international financing and scaled the team to over 150 people. Today, Lunaphore's products are utilized by leading pharmaceutical companies and high-profile academic institutions worldwide. Our technology has consistently been recognized by the industry, earning 20 awards and extensive international media coverage, and Lunaphore was regularly selected as one of the top startups in its field.
