Pedro Jesús Sánchez Fuentes

Pedro is an IT professional with more than 12 years of experience delivering software implementation projects for a range of clients and building new innovative solutions and products. He has extensive international experience in Europe, Latin America and Australia, where he has developed his career as subject matter expert in charge of coordinating the different areas involved in a project: from conceptualization and design teams, to development, customers and other stakeholders.

He has always worked in projects within the energy industry, including Oil&Gas, Power generation and, more recently, new business models and needs arising from the new distributed energy paradigm. The increasing adoption of distributed energy resources such as electric vehicles and storage has generated a need for new IT solutions where Big Data and Artificial Intelligence, among others, become key enablers. He actively participates in the creation and development of an internal practice within his current company, working with specific strategy, marketing, technical, consulting and innovation areas, with an intrapreneurial spirit.

He holds a degree in Industrial Engineering as well as a Master in Energy and Industrial Sustainability, which became his main professional and research interest areas. He continuously seeks for new ways to apply digital technologies to solve challenges in these knowledge domains.
