Dan Fuochi, Lic.Iur. / LL.M. / CAS SDGI

Attorney, partner

Head of Swiss Office

Dan is a partner in the Swiss office. An entrepreneur at heart, he advises social businesses and NGOs addressing today’s social, cultural and environmental issues. Most notably, he acts as general counsel to the Sustainable Infrastructure Foundation, an organization led and financed by the Multilateral Development Banks and headquartered in Geneva.

Alongside his practice, Dan founded a non-profit aimed at providing legal and administrative support to the elderly and persons with disability in Geneva. He is a member of the Swiss Bar Association, the Swiss Private Equity & Corporate Finance Association (SECA), and the Sustainable Finance Geneva (SFG) Association.

When he’s not at the office, he can most likely be found hiking with his family, running trails, and climbing mountains in the Alps.
