WE REALITY-TEST YOUR STRATEGY.
Governance Audits. Bio-Fidelity Stress-Testing. Reputational Defense.
Compliance lawyers check your paperwork. We check your reality. We stress-test your leadership culture and R&D protocols against the unyielding laws of human biology.
THE GAP BETWEEN PROTOCOL AND REALITY
ETHOS FIDELIS is a Swiss strategic practice helping Biopharma and MedTech leaders see what they are missing.
We are not lawyers.
We are Reality Strategists.
Standard clinical trials and compliance checklists often ignore the messiness of real human biology - anomalies, rare conditions, and scar tissue.
We bring that reality back into the boardroom.
We work with leaders who view "Patient Voice" not as a soft skill, but as a Safety Discipline. Because if your device fails the reality test, no amount of paperwork will save the launch.
What We Deliver
-
GOVERNANCE & CULTURAL RISK
Toxic leadership rhetoric creates "Silence Gaps" where staff hide safety risks. We audit your culture to find the fear before it triggers a recall.
-
BIO-FIDELITY ENGINEERING
A lab bench is not a human face. We stress-test your prototypes against the "Cantilever Effect" of lived biology, identifying failure points that standard engineering misses.

-
REPUTATIONAL DEFENSE
In the ESG era, an ethical blind spot is a financial liability. We audit your external narrative to prevent "Trust-Washing" and protect your brand equity.

WHY SURVIVOR-LED?
BECAUSE SURVIVAL IS DATA.
Patients don't trust systems that fail them. They trust survivors who understand why the system failed.
At ETHOS FIDELIS, we treat Lived Experience as Operational Intelligence. We are building a consultancy where survivors contribute biological and navigational data - translating the grit of survival into practical strategy for R&D and Regulatory Affairs.
Survivor-Informed, Not Just Academic: We combine the reality of the patient journey with the rigor of Swiss regulatory standards.
Anatomical, Not Political: We focus on biological reality - phenotypes, genetics, and physical access to ensure your innovation works for every body.
