@pablovergelin
Industrial designer specializing in strategic intelligence, technology scouting, and innovation management.
What I'm looking for
I am a naturally curious and multilingual professional with a strong ability to search, organize, and analyze information to generate knowledge and contribute to research and innovation projects. I’m especially interested in the intersection of technology, design, and strategy, as well as sustainability, energy efficiency, forest and biodiversity conservation, social innovation, and the circular economy.
I have experience in information management, strategic intelligence, and institutional coordination, having participated in the design and development of sectoral observatories on topics such as the bioeconomy, cultural and creative industries, and Industry 4.0. I enjoy working in collaborative, creative environments where respect and shared purpose are central.
I am passionate about contributing to projects that have social or environmental impact, helping generate strategic insights, manage knowledge, and develop meaningful solutions for a better society and a healthier planet. I am currently seeking remote opportunities in the private sector (with international scope, ideally based in Italy) that align with values-driven innovation, sustainability, and the ethical implementation of emerging technologies, including artificial intelligence.
