I worked for more than 15 years in International Strategic Consulting, Global Corporate Diplomacy and International Operations. Starting my career in Ernst & Young Consulting in April 2000, I was involved in the main Strategic plans with GMs of some IBEX 35 companies (in the Spanish Stock Exchange). In 2004, I was co-founder of BURJGROUP to lead the strategic implementations of European Companies in the Middle East and GCC area. Nowadays, BURJGROUP provide Global Corporate Diplomacy Services and Invest in key companies implemented in the Middle East and GCC region. Due to the experience I gained until this moment, I start a collaboration with the JORDAN INVESTMENT BOARD and the ECONOMIC BOARD of BAHRAIN, working for their interests and attract strategic Spanish and Portuguese companies to their countries. Three regional Spanish Governments (Murcia, Cantabria and Castilla La Mancha) decided to appoint BURJGROUP as Corporate Diplomacy Institution in the Middle East and GCC. I became Director for their offices in the area, and i lead the strategic implementations of their top private companies in the Middle East and Gulf. In March 2010, I was appointed as representative in Spain of BGRdc, one of the most important Bi-partisan lobbies in Washington DC. We supported top Spanish companies in their business activities in the US. In this period I did spend my business time between Europe, USA and Middle East.
