Omar is one of the marketing strategists the future is needing today.  He has forged a unique skill set for transmitting vision to reality, mission into action, and philosophy into practice. The focus of his work is to empower brands for the opportunities brought by the era of sustained value creation. Stemming from the power of marketing to change the world, he started a pioneering practice on evolving concepts such as green marketing and purpose branding. That led him to represent agencies with an impact-amplification approach. In the last couple of years, he has played an instrumental role in starting up a media-tech company designed to amplify the impact of carbon finance. He holds a BA in Marketing Management from Universidad Panamericana, an MBA from IPADE Business School and an MSc in Strategic Sustainability from Blekinge Institute of Technology.
