“Each morning, when I switch my computer on, I am extremely pleased that my job can help improve the quality of people’s lives in certain moments, for example, when purchasing”.

This is how I live my role both as an academic and as a team activator at m+f=! transforming businesses.

I do it by using latest-generation marketing, which includes neuroscience, digitisation, semiotics, psychology, sociology, and predictive analytics. This allows me to shape brands and customer experiences that please the brain.

I hold a BBA and MBA from ESADE Business school. I have also completed my studies at the University of Stirling (UK) with an MBA in retailing, and I’ve studied active learning methods at Harvard BS (USA).

I began my career as a consultant in 1976, and after 10 years of experience I accepted an invitation to join the business faculty at ESADE where I am currently an Associate Professor lecturing on the subjects of marketing and retail innovation.

During my time at ESADE, I have launched and led the Commercialisation and Retailing Department, and been Director of the Marketing Management Department (2003-2005) and Co-Director of the EMMS (Executive Master in Marketing & Sales, 2007-2014).
