Johann Roduit, PhD
I help turn ambitious ideas into strategies, projects and narratives.
I work with organizations, executives, researchers and entrepreneurs across strategy, innovation, ethics, AI, project development, science communication and public engagement.
A good idea. A clear way forward.
A short introduction to how I help turn ambitious ideas into projects and narratives people can act on.
Johann Roduit · 1 minute · EnglishWhen a good idea is still hard to make real
Complex ideas often sit between disciplines: strategy, technology, ethics, research, design and communication. I help bring those pieces together so an idea can become a clearer, more credible project, venture or narrative.
What I can work with you on
Strategy & Project Development
I help frame ambitious ideas, clarify direction and shape them into projects, ventures or initiatives that can move forward.
Ethics, AI & Innovation
I bring a bioethics and human-centered perspective to technology, AI, innovation and the decisions surrounding them.
Science Communication & Storytelling
I help translate complex research and emerging technologies into clear narratives, films, experiences and public engagement.
Research depth, practical execution
My work combines a PhD background in biomedical ethics with hands-on experience in innovation, project development and communication. I co-founded Conexkt in 2017, remain an affiliate researcher at the University of Zurich, produced Seizing Hope and co-led the award-winning Swiss Edelweiss Village preservation effort.
