Throughout my career, I have learned that innovation is not just a goal, but an ongoing process of adaptation and leadership, and this belief drives me every day. I firmly believe that true success lies in transforming disruptive ideas into real solutions capable of driving business growth.With over 20 years of experience in the technology and telecommunications sectors, I have had the opportunity to lead projects that have made a difference. As the CEO of PlayGiga, I spearheaded the development of an innovative cloud gaming technology that caught the attention of Facebook, resulting in its acquisition in 2020. During that time, I built and led a team of more than 70 professionals and took the company to the global stage, collaborating with technology giants like INTEL, Telecom Italia, and video game publishers such as Square Enix, Disney, and Warner.I also held strategic roles at Amena-Orange, contributing to its rapid growth and consolidation as a leader in the SME segment. I began my career at Monitor Deloitte, where I helped large corporations expand and optimize their operations.Currently, I lead the AIA Group, where we help transform businesses through the use of algorithms and artificial intelligence. Additionally, I collaborate as an advisor and serve on the boards of various tech companies across Europe, supporting strategic sectors such as cybersecurity, cloud computing, and blockchain.I also work with venture capital and private equity firms such as Adara Ventures, La Caixa Capital Risc, Inveready, Bankinter, and Ardian, where I am a board member of Aire Networks, a leading telecommunications operator in Spain.WWW.AIA.ESLARGE-SCALE AI AUTOMATION | AI-DRIVEN ANALYTICS | ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI) SOLUTIONS | ADVANCED ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE | B2B TECH | NLP | RPA | DATA SCIENCE | MACHINE LEARNING
