This historical stage is resolved in the talent of each human being, each woman and each man. An added value built from familiar knowledge, and the circles of people that surround us in student life, or in an early working life.

UK, February 23, 2018.- China, a country with 1,000 million citizens, is already synonymous with colossal construction and engineering projects.

Today, I highlight the construction of the largest bridge in the world with an extension of 55 kilometers between the towns of Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao.

I read this information from the New York Times that seems to me the most fair to Uber’s business reality Continue reading Uber: From technological innovation to resignations and management scandals
