CHRISTIAN HUGO HOFFMAN
Director of the AI Startup Center at TECHNOPARK®
Lecturer of Ethics of Digital Transformation at University of Zurich
Christian Hugo Hoffmann is a successful entrepreneur and AI entrepreneur. His first company, a spin-off of his completed doctoral project in the field of finance at the University of St. Gallen, which he sold, was dedicated to a risk management solution using AI - more precisely: integrating non-classical approaches of formal epistemology such as Wolfgang Spohn's Ranking Theory or Fuzzy Logic, which is based on Zadeh, among others - for medium-sized and smaller banks. He then worked in C-level positions in German- and French-speaking Switzerland and co-founded companies in Germany, Switzerland and Malawi. He is currently active as a dedicated clusterpreneur, on the one hand with his real estate company House of Lab Science and on the other as head of the AI Startup Center in Zurich. He actively advocates more responsibility in his writings, speeches and practical entrepreneurship.
