To highlight a key aspect of my professional profile, I would say that I am a lateral thinker with the ability to identify new opportunities by leveraging technology to drive change in established markets.
Driven, hard-working, and inherently committed, I have utilized this ability to develop new strategies, communicate opportunities, and lead teams to accomplish them. I have undertaken these roles as an entrepreneur, R&D director, innovation leader, and agent of social change at various stages of my career.
I have always been hands-on with technology since my early years and pursued my studies as an MSc. Telecom Engineer, providing me with a strong technological foundation to underpin these new business innovations.
With a deep passion for people, I have delved into thorough research on competencies and behaviors to comprehend how individuals can drive value creation and establish new businesses through technology.
After more than 20 years in various sectors (banking, telecom, consumer electronics, aeronautics, automotive, manufacturing, etc.), I continue to pose numerous questions and diligently work each day to uncover the answers.
