RAPHAEL BLUNSCHI
Founding Partner
Raphael has a passion for developing new initiatives.
His natural curiosity and drive led him from a humble beginning in a 600-person Swiss farming village to the world of finance. He started his career as a banker and discovered the early hedge fund business in 1996. He became a founding member of the UBS prime brokerage business in Zurich, Switzerland and New York. Later he joined RMF, which became part of Man Group, and pioneered one of the first major hedge fund managed account platforms. In his last position, he was the CAO for K2 Advisors, a division of Franklin Templeton (FT), where he was a Member of the Executive Committee, Member of the Operations Committee, and Member of FT's FinTech Opportunities Committee.
Raphael’s career as a hedge fund analyst, covering a range of emerging hedge fund strategies, has spanned over 15 years. It was during this time that the idea for Incos.Media originated.
With Incos.Media, Raphael continues his passion for innovative ideas and simple solutions that add value and adapt to changing times.

Throughout his career, Stefan has combined both his love for movies and storytelling along with his technical expertise.
He strongly believes that technology is a means, not an end to help people focus on what is important: their stories.
Stefan started his career in filmmaking in Zurich, Switzerland, honing his skills during film school and under a traineeship with renowned Swiss director Dieter Gränicher, working on the non-traditional documentary “Ferien im Duett” (premiered at the 2005 Locarno Film Festival). Critically, Stefan learned not only how to guide non-actors to be comfortable in front of the camera, but to convey substantive and thematically relevant stories.
In addition, Stefan honed his technical skills and financial knowledge at the leading global financial companies RMF/MAN (Switzerland), HedgeServ (New York), and PIMCO (New York). For each of these firms, Stefan built large-scale distributed and web-based technology solutions to enable global clients understand both he reasons and stories behind their portfolios’ performance.
Now at Incos.Media, Stefan is merging filmmaking and finance, empowering managers to tell their origin story, motivations, and beliefs to a global audience of allocators through a highly efficient remote recording and production process.
