Since starting his first company at age 18 (while completing his apprenticeship at Swiss Bank Corporation), Mr. Aegerter has always had a passion for entrepreneurial activities. He is unique in his business experience on both sides of the Atlantic, as both an investor and an entrepreneur. As Chairman and CEO of TRADEX, Mr. Aegerter was responsible for setting the strategic direction and goals for the company; attracting a strong management team; raising venture capital; and supervising both sales and marketing execution. Mr. Aegerter first business venture was DYNABIT AG, which was founded in 1988 as an importer and distributor for Apple Mactintosh peripherals. He led the company through 12 years of steady growth and consistent profitability, growing its revenue from 0 to 30 million dollars by age 25. TRADEX was spun off from DYNABIT in 1996, after DYNABIT created its own Digital Market and decided to sell its software to other B2B market makers.
