About Fabricio Franco

Grateful for this journey of learning in industries such as Payments, Banking, Telecommunications, and Prepaid Health, I am currently dedicated to collaborating with companies, entrepreneurs, and startups that have a dream. During my journey, I held prominent roles, such as CEO and C-level positions in renowned national and multinational companies such as DATAFAST, TELMEX, SALUDsa, CITI, as well as in various significant banks in the country, which offered me the most disruptive and challenging scenarios.I had the opportunity to delve into digital transformation, technological innovation, and the ability to adapt to disruption as CEO of DATAFAST. This experience provided me with numerous challenges and learnings in a highly regulated, complex, and competitive environment, where we maintained high standards of quality, productivity, and customer satisfaction. Alongside an exceptional team of over 300 collaborators, we consistently maintained an 80% market share, a consistent and attractive ROE for shareholders, as well as launched various innovative products and services.My journey in companies like CITI and TELMEX was fundamental to my professional development. These opportunities provided me with a deep understanding of corporate culture in multinational companies, as well as an appreciation for the diverse perspectives and ways of working among colleagues from different nationalities.Passion, enthusiasm, teamwork, and results orientation have been and will be the guiding principles in every project or mission in my life. I fondly remember UNIVISA, a telecommunications company whose shareholders were the most important media outlets in the country. As CCO and PMO, we were pioneers in discussing digitalization in Ecuador, successfully migrating the analog transmission signal to digital.Self-education, curiosity, research, and critical thinking have been fundamental pillars in my professional growth. Complementing my education in Business Engineering obtained at the Universidad Católica de Guayaquil, I am in the process of completing a dual degree Master's program with the Universitat de Barcelona and OBS Business School in Spain.Continuous learning and the constant pursuit of understanding new trends in business and technology are integral parts of my professional identity and will continue to be so in the future.Are you ready to turn your dreams into reality? Contact me; it will be a privilege to talk with a visionary.ffranco@mangrove.com.ec, www.mangrove.com.ec
