International by design. Built for complex decisions.

With its Switzerland office, NOA expands its advisory capabilities into cross-border structures and AI-enabled transformation, supporting leadership teams where financial rigor meets operational scale.

SWITZERLAND

A strategic gateway into one of the world’s most sophisticated business environments.

Our Swiss office serves as a strategic platform for companies looking to establish, structure, or expand their presence in Switzerland. Through a combination of local expertise, international perspective, and trusted networks, NOA supports the design and implementation of corporate, financial, and tax structures aligned with Swiss regulatory standards and long-term business objectives.

The Swiss desk is led by Mădălina Mănoiu, Strategic Partner Switzerland and Founder & Managing Partner of SwissAI Partners GmbH.

With a background spanning governance, risk & compliance, finance, strategy, and AI transformation, Mădălina advises international mid-market companies, scale-ups, leadership teams, and investors on how to translate technological ambition into measurable business performance.

Over the past two decades, she has built an international career across Europe, the Americas, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, India, and Africa, combining strategic advisory with hands-on experience in complex business and operational transformation initiatives.

Her work focuses on the point where strategy meets execution: helping organizations define governance models, identify high-value AI use cases, and redesign operations with a clear link to business outcomes and organizational resilience.

Alongside her advisory work, Mădălina teaches executive education programs on Agentic AI at the Swiss Board School and the Institute of Internal Auditors Switzerland. She is also actively involved in European innovation and governance communities, bringing an institutional perspective and cross-market insight into client engagements.

AI as a business discipline

NOA extends its advisory model into AI transformation through a structured, business-first approach developed in partnership with SwissAI Partners GmbH.

The focus is precise: using AI to strengthen margins, improve operational clarity, and open new revenue streams- without compromising the trust that underpins tax and audit mandates.

Explore Core Capabilities

The methodology follows a clear progression, from strategic alignment to measurable outcomes:

  • Define direction at the leadership level
  • Assess operational reality across processes, data, and people
  • Test and validate use cases before full investment
  • Deploy with control and measurable KPIs
  • Continuously track performance and refine strategy

This approach positions AI as a lever for disciplined growth, for execution tied to business value.

For NOA, the impact is twofold:

  • Increased efficiency through targeted automation
  • Development of a new advisory layer, relevant to an existing client base already operating in complex environments

From financial rigor to operational intelligence

NOA’s international platform integrates three layers of advisory:

01.

Audit & Assurance

Structural integrity and credibility

02.

Tax Advisory

Clarity across jurisdictions

03.

AI Transformation

Operational performance and scalability

Together, they form a coherent system around decision-making.
Not parallel services, but connected capabilities that reinforce each other for better architecture.

Decisions that hold across borders and over time

Clients operating internationally face a common pressure:
growth increases complexity faster than governance evolves.

NOA’s international presence addresses this gap directly.

  • Integration of operational transformation with governance and fiscal efficiency across multiple jurisdictions
  • Visibility into performance drivers, not just outcomes
  • Control over risk in environments shaped by regulation and rapid change
  • Access to cross-border corporate, financial, and tax structuring capabilities designed to support scalability

The result is direction with control.

“When I'm asked who we work with for tax and internal audit, I say NOA. I'm not even asked why — it's intuitive. NETOPIA is what it is, so NETOPIA's consultants are at the same level.”
