José María Palomares

Spain

I am an experienced communications, marketing, public affairs & social media senior executive. I am passionate about communication, education and innovation (and especially the combination of all of them). I have developed my career in three different sectors: IT telco (B2B), financial services and higher-education. I have held executive positions in Telefónica, ING Bank and Laureate Universities (where I currently serve as Director of Corporate Communications for Spain & Portugal and member of the Management Committee).I firmly believe in the enormous potential of networking and collaboration.
