Dominik Kaiser

Founder & CEO bei Elevator Group AG

Kilchberg, Zurich, Switzerland

About

Dominik built his first company at fifteen, importing Atari STs and Commodore Amigas and coding software. He never stopped building. What sets him apart is a rare combination: the creativity to develop hit content, the vision to build businesses around it, the analytical rigor to scale them, and a deep technological understanding — all driven by an entrepreneurial mindset. That mix has allowed him to found and scale businesses across media, music, and entertainment where others couldn't. Most notably, he founded the 3 Plus Group AG and built it into Switzerland's largest private TV group (four linear channels, streaming, and a strong social media presence). Before 3+, every well-financed attempt to establish private television in Switzerland had failed. Dominik succeeded — and sold the group as majority shareholder. His track record includes producing TV shows — several becoming market leaders in their demographics — and a feature film, launching two music labels, launching and running music television channel VIVA Plus in Germany, and establishing an advertising agency. He also co-promoted Street Parade, growing it into one of Europe's biggest one-day events with over one million attendees. Recognized as Media Manager of the Year 2017 and recipient of the Swiss Economic Award 2009. Ten gold and platinum album records. Dominik — a YPO member — has pursued extensive executive education at Stanford GSB (including SEP), Harvard Business School (including the YPO Presidents Program), MIT, Kellogg, and Cambridge, with a focus on AI, strategy, and innovation. Today, he runs Elevator Group AG, a media development company, while exploring his next venture.
