After five years at the helm, former FDP National Councilor Doris Fiala is handing over the reins to the "greatest bridge-builder" in the Swiss National Council, EPP National Councilor Nik Gugger.

With his digital expertise, social commitment and national and international network, he is the ideal candidate for the SCSD presidency. Nik Gugger is a member of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the National Council, part of the Swiss delegation to the Council of Europe, President of the Swiss-Indian Parliamentary Friendship Group and Co-President of the Swiss-Ukrainian Parliamentary Group. “Many of the big issues of our time are digital,” says Gugger. "We are setting the course for tomorrow today. I am delighted to be at the forefront of ensuring that we can move independently and securely in the digital space."
