Simon Perdrisat is a strategic advisor for Fraser Nolet in digital transformation, technology governance, and socio-technical innovation, with over fifteen years of experience across higher education, public administration, international initiatives, and the private sector. Based in Geneva, he combines a strong technical foundation in IT, web development, and design with academic expertise in international relations and technology governance, enabling him to bridge the gap between technical implementation, institutional strategy, and societal impact.
He is recognized for his ability to analyze and guide socio-technical transitions, helping organizations anticipate not only technical risks but also cultural, ethical, and strategic challenges. Simon approaches digital transformation as a cultural transition rather than a purely technological shift, favoring a human-centered perspective over fascination with tools or solutionism. His approach emphasizes recognition of the practices and needs of individuals and communities, while encouraging experimentation, participation, and exchange. His leadership ensures that digital transformation serves as an inclusive and empowering force, fostering resilient governance and long-term impact. He is known for aligning diverse stakeholders around common standards, processes, and tools; building the coalitions and incentives that make change stick.
Simon has advised the Canton of Geneva and the Confederation on corporate digital responsibility, participatory platforms, and digital ecosystems, including a research project on digital responsibility with the University of Geneva. Internationally, he has contributed to the Swiss Digital Initiative, developing frameworks for digital trust and ethics in collaboration with partners across Europe. Most recently, he served as Adjoint to the Digital Strategy Office at HES-SO Geneva, leading strategic initiatives in educational technology, change management, and digital innovation for Switzerland’s largest university of applied sciences.
At Fraser Nolet, Simon provides strategic advisory services that bring unique perspectives on technology, society, and governance to our work. We rely on his brilliance in bridging hands-on implementation with strategic foresight—helping clients not only design strategies but also implement change that is ethical, inclusive, and resilient. His contributions strengthen our ability to anticipate emerging challenges, align diverse stakeholders, and deliver transformations that endure. His work on socio technical imaginaries and technology narratives equips leaders to de risk adoption, anticipate unintended effects, and design governance that scales. Clients value his vendor neutral stance, pragmatic delivery, and ability to convert strategy into measurable outcomes.
