Joshua G. Eckblad

Over the last 13 years I have collaborated with organizations to define new innovation strategies, create business plans and digital platforms and produce breakthrough products and services. I have launched and developed Internet startups, partnered with technology leaders and worked with Fortune 500 / CAC 40 organizations across North America, Europe and the Middle East.

Employing «design thinking» to reframe complex problems, my focus has been on identifying fundamental organizational challenges and building team commitment and capability to transform these challenges into business successes. I commit myself to taking teams and organizations to heights they have not previously thought they could reach. Developing the innovative capacity of people, teams, and organizations is what I enjoy most. My most significant rewards come from seeing those I work with grow in their skills, motivation, confidence and success.

Always committed to every project 24/7, and having a career made up of an unending series of such projects, in the next phase of my career I want to engage in reflection on the larger issues stemming from technological innovation.

Enjoying both American and European Union citizenships, I have professional experience working and living in Spain, France, England, Taiwan and the USA. I speak, read and write Spanish, French and English, understand spoken and written Portuguese. I am currently studying Mandarin.

A keen interest in entrepreneurship, design leadership, the Internet, and research.
