Michael Rogenmoser will become the new CEO of IAZI AG from September 1st 2023. The previous CEO, Prof. Dr Donato Scognamiglio, will take over the office of Chairman of the Board of Directors from Dr Philippe Sormani. Donato Scognamiglio will support Michael Rogenmoser in his new role and, in the spirit of continuity, will continue to make his broad experience and expertise available to the company.
After many years as CEO at IAZI AG, Prof. Dr Donato Scognamiglio will become the company’s new Chairman of the Board of Directors on 1st September 2023. He will succeed Dr Philippe Sormani, who is retiring this year. Dr Philippe Sormani co-founded IAZI in 1994, which has since made a name for itself in the Swiss market for its unique real estate expertise. Michael Rogenmoser will also become the new CEO of IAZI AG on 1st September 2023.
Michael Rogenmoser (44) joins IAZI from the Swiss online comparison portal Comparis, where he was responsible for the Insurance and Mortgages division. Previously, he was COO and Head of Business Development at the online mortgage broker Moneypark and was responsible for Switzerland and Liechtenstein at the banking financial services provider Avaloq for several years. In previous positions, he worked for twelve years in the international financial industry as a management consultant and investment banker with a focus on strategic consulting for financial institutions and in the area of mergers & acquisitions. He worked for McKinsey, UBS and MilleniumAssociates, among others. Michael Rogenmoser holds an MBA in Corporate Finance and Information Management from the University of Bern. He also holds the title of Chartered Financial Analyst. He is married and has a daughter.
“This change within IAZI is all about competence and continuity. While we can gain a lot of new know-how with Michael Rogenmoser, I am pleased to be able to continue to make my experience available to the company,” said Prof. Dr Donato Scognamiglio. In addition to his activities as Chairman of the Board of Directors, Donato Scognamiglio will be increasingly involved in politics in the future. “At the same time, I would like to thank our co-founder Philippe Sormani for his innovative strength and strategic foresight, because without these qualities, IAZI would not have come into being in this form,” added Scognamiglio.
Martin Waeber, Managing Director Real Estate at SMG Swiss Marketplace Group, also sees a lot of potential in the change at IAZI: “With Michael Rogenmoser, we have been able to gain a proven digital expert who will continue to lead IAZI along the path of innovation we have embarked upon. At the same time, it is gratifying that IAZI, as well as SMG as a whole, can continue to count on the expertise and experience of Donato Scognamiglio, and thus on one of the best-known and most distinguished real estate experts in Switzerland.”
Michael Rogenmoser is looking forward to his new task with excitement: “The focus topics are artificial intelligence on the one hand and increased sustainability in the real estate industry on the other,” he said. But he also sees the further expansion of digitalisation and IAZI’s innovative product range as the focus of his upcoming activities.
