      Location: Madrid, Spain | Languages: English, Spanish
      Representation: Represented globally by PSpeakers Global Intelligence

      Enrique Dans is a globally recognised authority in digital transformation, disruptive technology, and innovation strategy. Serving as the Senior Advisor for Innovation and Digital Transformation and Professor of Innovation at the prestigious IE Business School, he equips C-suite leaders and boards with the strategic foresight necessary to navigate an era of unprecedented technological velocity. His proprietary frameworks focus on the socio-economic impacts of emerging technologies, enabling global organisations to pivot from reactive adaptation to proactive disruption.

      With a distinguished academic and professional career spanning over three decades, Dans has dedicated his life to analysing how technology fundamentally alters human behaviour, business models, and societal structures. He is an acclaimed author of seminal works such as Todo va a cambiar (Everything is Going to Change) and Viviendo en el futuro (Living in the Future), which serve as essential blueprints for corporate leaders navigating the digital age. Furthermore, as a prolific contributor to international publications like Forbes and a leading voice on his own highly influential platform, he consistently shapes the global discourse on the future of enterprise technology.

      Dans possesses a unique ability to demystify complex technological paradigms—such as Artificial Intelligence, machine learning, the Internet of Things (IoT), and decentralised networks—translating them into actionable corporate strategies. His advisory portfolio includes extensive work with multinational corporations, guiding them through the intricate nuances of digital maturity, corporate sustainability, and the evolution of the modern workforce.

      • “Conozco a Enrique desde que estudiábamos juntos, con menos de diez años, en un colegio de los Jesuitas. Siempre ha sido una persona tremendamente curiosa, lo que es la base, junto a la duda, de la adquisición del conocimiento. Siempre ha sido despistado, porque su cabeza estaba permanentemente ocupada (una característica habitual de los genios). Quizá por la educación que recibimos, nunca damos nada por sentado y queremos saber siempre más, para formarnos una opinión propia y fundamentada. Estudió biología pero, por circunstancias que no vienen al caso, acabo convirtiéndose en un referente mundial en distintas materias que nada tienen que ver con la biología, hasta ser considerado un gurú. Enrique es una persona muy inteligente, muy formada, pero también muy trabajadora y constante. Se obliga, siempre, a dar la mejor versión de sí mismo. No es casualidad que sepa mucho y de muchas cosas. No es casualidad que sea consultado sobre lo que nos deparará el futuro, porque siempre va por delante de los demás. No es casualidad que suela acertar.”
