Zurich, 30 January 2024 Eraneos Switzerland is pleased to announce the appointment of Dr. René Fitterer as Partner.

Noted expert for CIO and strategic advisory, enterprise applications, architecture and cloud

The appointment of Dr. René Fitterer furthers the technology and management consultancy’s emphasis on bolstering its holistic approach to shaping successful digital transformations.

Eraneos Switzerland’s Managing Partner, Adrian Wägli, comments, “René Fitterer brings a wealth of experience to his new role. He will work closely with Chief Information Officers (CIOs) and business executives to design and implement successful digital transformation journeys, while enabling our teams to design and manage high value solutions and architectures based on our strong in-house knowledge and cutting-edge industry expertise.”

René Fitterer emphasizes the importance of real insights in reimagining business models, stating, “Shaping and executing the digital transformation agendas of each of our clients requires expertise and insights that are the direct result of thorough experience and an innate dedication to quality. Working together with a client’s c-suite leadership is where we begin. Our teams’ focus on quality sees it through.”
