Doutreval brings over twenty years of international experience in marketing, sales, and strategic business development, including leadership roles at Bosch, Hilti, and Mettler-Toledo.

Executive education is becoming increasingly important in the context of digitalization, the transformation of labor markets, and artificial intelligence. The Executive Education at the University of Zurich sees itself as a platform at the intersection of academically grounded research, interdisciplinary knowledge, and the practical challenges facing business and society.
