Nathalie Stübi will take the role of Deputy Executive Director of the Risk Dialogue Foundation as of 1st of July 2020. She joined the Risk Dialogue Foundation in January 2019 as a project manager and has actively promoted the development of the digital initiative APROPOS_ in the topic of digital transformation. Before that, Nathalie Stübi worked in the management of a digital start-up for seven years. She had expanded her social science background at the Chair of Computational Social Science at ETH and at the Climate Chair in the area of Citizen Science at the University of Zurich.
Thematically, Nathalie Stübi implements projects under the label APROPOS_:

She takes over the position from Christoph Beuttler, who is reducing his work for the Risk Dialogue Foundation due to other commitments. With his competencies, he supported the strategic development of the Risk Dialogue Foundation and opened up new fields of activity. He has also strengthened the Climate and Energy Division and specifically built up the area of “Negative Emission Technologies” (NET) for the Foundation. He will continue to work as project leader and senior expert on these topics, thus carrying forward the vision of the Risk Dialogue Foundation for an open joint dialogue on the future, especially for NET in Swiss climate policy.
Matthias Holenstein, as Executive Director of the Foundation, emphasises: “With Nathalie Stübi, we found a competent successor and a thematic complement in the field of digitalisation in the Executive Board. On behalf of the Risk Dialogue Foundation, I would like to thank Christoph Beuttler for his long-term commitment and his impetus – also in further joint projects”.
