Aitor Ferran Morgado

I recently completed the International MBA offered by Ramón Llull University and La Salle Univerity of Philadelphia (School of Business Administration). I decided to study for an MBA to complement my academic training as a Telecommunications Engineering Technician, with a clear view toward channelling my career into business management.

I have been employed for 5 years at La Salle Technova Barcelona, the technology park affiliated with the La Salle/Ramón Llull University, where I have carried out diverse jobs in the innovation department.

As head of innovation I have worked to cultivate new innovation projects between companies and the university, consulting on innovation and development projects for start-ups and SMEs and providing them with support in the development of their projects, from the conception stage through to business model definition, business plan write-up and the search for public and private funding.

Given my ICT background, I have collaborated on the design and assessment of technological projects as well as on technology evaluation and valuation (from the laboratory to the market).

Significant achievements over the last two years include the creation of a new line of business within the company, namely an innovation cluster for the development of new medical technology-based goods and services that enabled Technova to enter the healthcare/medical technology sector, an area in which we had no previous experience.

I am interested in working in the area of business consulting or on the development of innovation projects. I consider myself a dynamic, creative, responsible, organised person with extensive analytical and communication skills, and am used to working in multidisciplinary and international teams.

My experience in the area of innovation, my background consulting for start-ups on how to put their business ideas into practice, my technical education and knowledge of the technology sector and the MBA that has broadened my business understanding and knowledge all convince me of the desirability of a business relationship between myself and your company.
