Adrian König is an entrepreneur, a PhD candidate and research associate at the University of Bern’s Institute for Private International Law and Civil Procedure (CIVPRO). His research focuses on data-driven approaches to civil litigation. He runs a boutique advisory practice in Zurich and lectures in law at Delta Group. He gained experience across various areas of law, including at a globally renowned specialist litigation firm and several leading Swiss business law firms.

König pursued his studies in law and business administration in parallel. He completed an MLaw (magna cum laude) and a Certificate of Advanced Studies in International Law and Economics in 2024, followed by an MSc in Business Administration with a special qualification in Corporate Finance (insigni cum laude) in 2026.

During his undergraduate studies, König founded and led the Academic Surf Club Switzerland, now one of the country’s largest student organisations. He also organised surf camps for several hundred participants and co-founded Switzerland’s first student surfing championships. His academic and professional profile is complemented by substantial practical and athletic experience. Work as a private ski instructor in LAAX and in armed private security strengthened his resilience, client focus and ability to perform reliably in demanding, risk-sensitive environments.
