I am just returning from Washington, D.C. where I spent two days with the students of the Global Competitiveness Leadership Program.
In February, The Atlantic hosted Start-Up City: Miami, a gathering of local movers and shakers from both the private and public sector to talk about what it will take to make Miami a model, forward-thinking city in the decade to come.
I have been closely following the rapid expansion of Wayra, Telefónica’s new CSR program. Telefónica, the dominating telecom company in the Spanish speaking market, launched its technology incubator program in April 2011 in Colombia.
In the past 10 years it has had a rebirth, many would say thanks to Art Basel Miami Beach and the focus that the art fair brought the city.
I am excited to announce our latest business venture: we have partnered with Cuponidad for its launch in Venezuela. Cuponidad will now offer Venezuelan consumers a place to purchase services, products and travel packages at a huge discount. This is just one of what we hope will be many launches throughout Latin America.
I recently attended the presentation of Top Latin American Brands by the talented Sir Marten Sorrell, Chief Executive of WPP, and the team of Millward Brown.
I have just finished Hyper Island’s Master Class in NYC. I invited Miguel Dvorak, our COO, for the three day intensive course on digital media. As we are developing a very strong digital strategy at Cisneros I felt that I needed to find a place where I could learn about the bigger idea behind “Digital.”
While in Miami last week, I participated in the send-off party for the Geeks on a Plane Latin America Tour. I was one of three panelists invited to talk to this group of about 40 entrepreneurs the night before they set off on a 10-day tour to Mexico City, Sao Paolo and Buenos Aires.
