Officially I’m an economist, consultant, expert in sustainable, integrated urban development and city to city cooperation.
Actually, I'm a connector.
cities and their key stakeholders to identify (connect with) what they do well, (we all have something we are very good at, but not all of us are aware, people or cities).
to transform it into a good practice and link (connect) it with national and international strategic frameworks.
as a benchmark and a success story to transfer and capitalise, putting it on the map to facilitate access to European funds.
With a network of contacts (connections) at all levels that I have been developing over almost 20 years with an important premise: "Workation", working while having fun (in my personal interpretation of the term). If we collaborate enjoying ourselves, problems are solved with creativity, the results have a stronger impact and we will surely return home happier.
if you're looking for a traditional jacket and tie consultant, this is definitely not your place.
If you prefer something more personalised, a breath of fresh air, see you on a terrace in the sun...
... we’ll find them even in Brussels!!

“Capitalising” on the philosophy of Groucho Marx, I will tell you some of the work that we have enjoyed the most… but if you don't like them,
I have many more!
And everything that we do together, they invite me to speak about it, facilitate workshops and discussions and moderate events in different parts of the world such as Habitat III Quito, Medellin World Urban Forum, Committee of the Regions, European Parliament, European Commission (DG Regio), IDB Washington, Spanish Ministry of Finance, annual events of European programmes, forums, etc.
