Greta Preatoni’s MYNERVA Mission

Greta Preatoni does not sugarcoat what it takes to build. Launching a medtech start-up while completing an Executive MBA at the University of Zurich was intense, and she says so openly. “I’m honestly not sure I’d do it that way again,” she says. “I started the EMBA and the company at the same time, and it required real sacrifices.” She pauses, then adds: “It was tough, but it’s definitely paying off.”

Roger Büchel: From Stage Lights to Alpine Heights

Many people say they’re entrepreneurial. Roger Büchel bought a mountain.

Today he is majority owner and CEO of Gemmi Bahnen, an all-year excursion destination above Leukerbad in Valais. Two cable cars connect the spa town with the Gemmi Pass at over 2,000 meters and with Daubensee, a high-altitude natural lake. Guests come to hike, ski, snowshoe, and enjoy a car-free high-alpine landscape with wide views and plenty of space.

Mindset Matters: EMBA UZH Alumnus Nils Zimmermann on Accelerating SMEs

For EMBA UZH alumnus Nils Zimmermann, sport has always been more than a hobby. Early in high school, he picked mathematics and sports as his advanced-level subjects, a combination that reflects the blend of analysis and performance that still drives him today. Sailing, windsurfing, cycling, tennis and skiing are where he first saw how top performers think. “High performers always question themselves: How can I get better?” he says. “More than 80% of people are fine with how things are. But the best of the best keep asking that question.”
