Hello, dear visitors to my site, my name is Stefano Bosio
Combined Networks GmbH is an independent IT company based in Zug. As Workplace specialists, we provide, among other things, the Combined SECUREworkplace software solution, which we developed ourselves. We also offer our clients professional solutions and consulting services in the area of managed security.
The owner and managing director of Combined Networks GmbH is Stefano Bosio, an IT specialist with decades of experience.
I have been involved in the implementation and deployment of IT solutions for companies for many years. As a result, I know exactly the situation of companies that are about to take the step toward digitalization. I also know how important it is, especially for SMEs, to be accompanied by an experienced professional when taking this step, because the path in the IT world is not always without obstacles.
I am happy to offer my support here. But first I would like to tell you a few things about myself and my career:
From banker to IT specialist...
It was not IT, but carpentry and banking that marked the beginning of my professional life. I grew up at my parents' carpentry shop in the Italian-speaking Grisons. However, contrary to my initial plans, my career path did not lead me to a master carpenter's degree, but to a large Swiss bank, where I successfully completed a banking apprenticeship in the 1990s.
But as I discovered in various positions at my employer's branches, my real passion was not banking, but the digital world. As part of my daily work, I started very early on in information technology, which at that time was still in its infancy. The career change was evident when my employer offered me a job in the bank's IT department in Chur, which I gratefully accepted.
Here, in Switzerland's oldest city, I took my first professional steps in the world of information technology and a new horizon opened up for me. In my function as a client engineer, I assisted the employees of all branches in the canton. My main goal was always to enable them to work productively and without interruption. At the same time, I was able to acquire a lot of specialized knowledge. However, almost more important for me was the realization of how indispensable personal advice, interpersonal contact and trust are when dealing with complex IT problems in an efficient and satisfactory way for all parties.
A particular professional challenge at that time was the worldwide shift of the year numbers from two to four digits as the new millennium began. The fear of the so-called Y2K was great, in professional circles and beyond, but in retrospect it proved to be largely unfounded.
My professional experience increasingly served me privately as well: in addition to working for my employer, I digitized the processes of my parents' carpentry shop step by step. In doing so, I laid the foundation for the company's transition into a new digital era.
...up to independent businessman
After a good ten years, the merger of my employer with another large Swiss bank finally awakened in me the need for change. One reason was the much more impersonal working conditions of the new group. Of course, it was not an easy step for me to take. But the need for a work environment that was also fair on a personal level prevailed.
In retrospect, however, the move to the IT department of the largest publishing group in Canton Graubünden turned out to be right, because it allowed me to grow further. Professionally, I was given the challenge of implementing new projects with Citrix MetaFrame remote software. In the company's data center, I was also able to deepen my knowledge on all relevant IT topics, from terminal servers to virtualization, from messaging to databases.
Again, however, the desire for change and new challenges grew over the years but could not be realized due to the lack of professional alternatives in a small town like Chur. The solution finally came with a move to the Canton of Zug, where I have since worked for several specialized IT companies and implemented IT solutions for companies of all types and sizes.
In 2015, I founded my own company, Combined Networks GmbH, in parallel with my permanent position. After several years of working double jobs, in 2020, the year of the crisis, I finally put all my eggs in one basket: I started working exclusively for my own company.
We are at the beginning of a journey that will take us to a future we can only dream of today. I have the knowledge and experience to lead your company to the top. Let’s tackle this challenge together and shape your digital future!
