You are more than welcome. Either if you know me already or not yet, this website and domain reflects the 2 major service areas I have been performing:
Energy Management - Innovation projects, Sustainability, Energy efficiency and promotion of Renewable energies. Hence the "energético" section.
Digital collaboration - having been used to collaborate remotely at European level since 1994, I have developped a set of skills that allow teams and organisations to carry out collaborative work, presentially or remotely.
At your service!
