Christoph Nyfeler

Christoph Nyfeler is a Swiss entrepreneur driven by the conviction that some of the world's greatest challenges can be addressed through innovation, entrepreneurship and a strong can-do attitude. With international entrepreneurial experience spanning Singapore and Switzerland, he has founded, built and invested in companies that combine economic value creation with environmental responsibility. His ventures focus on tackling global challenges, including food security, resource efficiency, industrial decarbonisation and climate change.

As co-founder of Circular Food Solutions Switzerland AG, established in 2022 in partnership with the Bühler Group, he is advancing innovative technologies that transform food industry by-products into nutritious, sustainable food ingredients. Through his work with Pflanzenkohle Schweiz AG, he contributes to long-term carbon removal and renewable energy production, while his efforts at Schweizer Mälzerei AG promote regional value chains, local sourcing and sustainable food production. Christoph is also co-owner of Nobile AG – Artisti del Cioccolato, an award-winning Swiss chocolate manufactory committed to exceptional craftsmanship, high-quality ingredients and responsible sourcing.

He is convinced that the transition towards a circular economy requires more than technological innovation. It demands entrepreneurial courage, cross-industry collaboration and economically viable solutions that can be scaled globally. His guiding principle is rooted in a strong can-do attitude: real progress comes not from endless discussions, but from taking responsibility, making decisions and turning ideas into action. He believes in getting things done, learning by doing and proving that sustainable solutions can also be economically successful. Christoph lives with his family in Lenzburg, Switzerland, and is actively engaged in public service and civic life, including his role as an elected District Court Judge.

“Less talk. More action. Building scalable solutions to the world's most pressing challenges.”
