Growth in the Tech&Data area

The incorporation of Victor not only brings more talent, but will allow us to have a team with more capacity to tackle large projects that we are increasingly requested by large corporations.” And he adds “Since July 2023, when reviewing the strategic plan, we proposed to incorporate 12 new partners until the end of 2025, we have already integrated 7 partners, of which five in Madrid (Eduardo Gomez, Víctor Casarrubios, Pedro Claros, Javier Cuairan and Víctor Morán) and two in Barcelona (Adriana Lafuente and Pablo Vinageras), so we are very satisfied.”
