Vita

Michael Elsener is known to many from the Swiss late-night show “Giacobbo/Müller”. The Zug native, who has won numerous cabaret awards, parodies our media behavior in his current program “Mediengeil”. Fans of clever entertainment will get their money's worth with the sharp-tongued observations of the trained political scientist. And he amazes with his comparisons between Switzerland and Germany or with his parodies of tennis champion Roger Federer or Federal Councillor Johann Schneider-Ammann. He is bursting with spontaneity. Unconventional, credible and always highly entertaining, Michael Elsener is one of the masters of a young generation of clever comedians. The Tages-Anzeiger summarizes: “Impressive, what the man can do!”

In his keynote speech, he talks about how politics and parody are connected. He moderates your conference. Or his latest specialty: at the end of your conference, he summarizes all the presentations in a funny way. If you wish, he can do all five things at one event.
