Fintech incubator and accelerator F10 announced that it has appointed Marc Hauser as new Head of Switzerland and a member of its global leadership team.

‍Gerrit Sindermann, who has been leading F10 Switzerland until recently, decided to pursue new endeavours outside F10, but will still be supporting F10 until the end of this year.

Marc will be responsible for leading the Swiss team in achieving F10’s mission of shaping the future of banking and insurance.

In his new role, he will focus on supporting startups to transform their ideas into successful companies and facilitating successful collaborations with F10’s corporate partners.

With his extensive experience in both corporate and entrepreneurial environments, the F10 team gains an experienced team member with a track-record on both sides.

Marc will be working closely with corporate partners, investors and industry experts in growing F10’s footprint in Switzerland and strengthening the Swiss fintech and insurtech ecosystem.

He has forged a distinguished career in the financial service industry, combining an entrepreneurial background with banking and strategy consulting experience.

Marc has co-founded two startups and supported startups in his role at the Institut fürJungunternehmen. In his most recent position he acted as co-founder, COO and Chief Growth Officer for F10 Alumni Startup advaisor AG.

At UBS Wealth Management he held positions across the value chain from product development to sales management and the digital offerings.

Prior to his career at UBS, he experienced formative years working in strategy consultancies, such as Roland Berger.

Marc holds a Master in Strategy & International Management from the University of St. Gallen and an MBA in Finance from the Nanyang Technological University in Singapore.

“We are very excited to welcome Marc to the team.

 

With his drive, international experience, business development acumen and in-depth knowledge in banking, entrepreneurship and innovation, he will strongly contribute to the growth of F10,”

said Andreas Iten, CEO and Co-Founder of F10.

Marc said on his new role,

“F10 has an impressive history and created all the relevant building blocks to enable innovation in the financial industry.

 

I am greatly looking forward to working with corporate partners, startups, investors and mentors to strengthen Switzerland’s position in the fintech and insurtech innovation landscape.”
