The best IT managers in Switzerland
A modern Chief Information Officer is at the heart of many of a company's transformations today. Against this backdrop, EY Switzerland annually presents the Swiss CIO Award to the best IT managers in Switzerland in collaboration with the CIO platform Confare.
Every year, EY Switzerland, in collaboration with the CIO platform Confare, awards the best IT managers in Switzerland. The winners are selected by a jury headed by Andreas Toggwyler, Partner Financial Services, Head of IT Risk and Assurance at EY Switzerland.
This year's winner was Konrad Zöschg, CIO of Zurich Airport. The award jury, chaired by Andreas Toggwyler, Partner Financial Services, Head of IT Risk and Assurance at EY Switzerland, commended him for successfully transforming "a large and complex company operating in a multi-faceted ecosystem. The role of IT plays an important part in the day-to-day operations of the airport to ensure smooth flight and airport operations. Around 400 systems and applications must always be available, function smoothly, interact with each other and be further developed.
Markus Guggenbühler (CIO of Manor AG), Ricardo Nebot (Head of IT at Emmi Switzerland) and Tobias Rölz (Member of Group Management and Head of Market & Digital Services at Komax), were the other winners at yesterday's award ceremony in Zurich. "We received many excellent applications for this year's Swiss CIO Award. Looking through the submissions, we could see a clear trend, with the CIO at the heart of the transformation of many companies, driving change from both a digital and talent perspective," said jury president Toggwyler, commenting on the challenges and focus of the honorees.
