Elias Badenes

Elias Badenes

With nearly 30 years of experience in the technology sector, I specialize in transforming complex business challenges into scalable, high-impact technical solutions. I define myself as a "power adapter": I bridge the gap between business strategy and technical execution, translating needs into optimized architectures within the Microsoft ecosystem (Dynamics 365, Power Platform, and Azure).

My approach combines a deep technical background with a strategic vision for Customer Experience (CX) and Marketing. I don’t just implement technology; I focus on the "why" behind every solution, integrating Artificial Intelligence and automation to drive real business value and simplify processes.

Beyond my role as an architect, I am deeply committed to knowledge sharing. I am a regular speaker at tech events, a lecturer in Master’s programs, and a mentor for initiatives like Technovation Girls. I believe in a human-centric digitalization that is both responsible and ethical.

I am always eager to connect with the community and discuss how we can leverage technology to scale businesses and improve user experiences.

Ivan Font Miñarro

Ivan Font Miñarro

I had an unusual start at university — my first year was in Medicine. Soon I discovered my path was elsewhere, and I pivoted into Industrial Engineering at Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC) in Barcelona. That early change shaped how I approach challenges today: with curiosity, adaptability, and a strong analytical mindset.

After graduating, I stepped straight into the world of ERP, working with Microsoft Dynamics AX (2009, 2012) and evolving alongside the ecosystem into what is now Dynamics 365. From the beginning, I was fortunate to go beyond pure ERP implementation — combining functional and technical work with Business Intelligence, systems architecture, and later, data and AI-driven solutions.

Today, I lead the technical department at a Microsoft partner consultancy, where I’m responsible for architecture, development standards, and innovation across projects involving Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations, Power Platform, Azure, and AI. My role sits at the intersection of technology, people, and strategy: designing scalable solutions while helping teams grow technically and professionally.

One of the most meaningful parts of my job is mentoring. I was lucky to have people who invested in my growth early in my career, and now I strive to do the same for others. Watching a colleague take their first independent “step” — solving a problem, leading a feature, making a design decision — is one of the most rewarding moments in my day-to-day work.

Beyond delivery, I’m passionate about sharing knowledge through talks, technical content, and community initiatives, especially around applied AI in business applications. I strongly believe that technology creates real impact only when it empowers people — both users and the professionals building the solutions.

Hola a todos 👋✨ Soy Jimena, Analista de Datos, y trabajo todos los días con Power BI para transformar datos complejos en soluciones analíticas claras, útiles y accionables 📊 Mi recorrido profesional no fue lineal —por suerte, porque si algo sabemos en datos es que casi nada interesante viene perfectamente estructurado desde el origen 😄—. Vengo del mundo del Derecho, una experiencia que me dio una base muy fuerte de análisis, lógica y pensamiento estructurado. Hace algunos años decidí reorientar mi carrera hacia la tecnología 💻 primero pasé por el desarrollo web y luego encontré en el análisis de datos un lugar donde realmente me siento en casa.

Hoy trabajo en proyectos donde el ecosistema Microsoft ocupa un rol central, con un interés cada vez más fuerte en Microsoft Fabric y en la construcción de soluciones de extremo a extremo: desde la ingesta y transformación de datos, hasta el modelado, la visualización y el análisis 🚀📈Me apasiona el código 👩‍💻 entender cómo funcionan las cosas "por dentro" y compartir conocimiento con la comunidad de datos, tanto como asistente como orador 🎤💙.

Disfruto especialmente de los conceptos técnicos sobre todo de Power BI y Microsoft Fabric de una manera clara, práctica y conectada con escenarios reales. cuando no estoy analizando datos ni peleándome amistosamente con Power Query 😅, seguramente estoy planeando un viaje ✈️, tomando mate con mis dos gatos 🐱🧉 o tratando de descifrar por qué un notebook de Python, que ayer andaba perfecto, hoy elige el caos.

Peter Ward

Peter Ward

Peter Ward is CEO of SoHo Dragon, a New York–based Microsoft Partner — though he began as a CTO and never entirely stopped behaving like one.

While much of the technology industry focuses on what’s new, Peter is more interested in what works. He has spent years helping organizations implement Microsoft cloud solutions by mastering proven capabilities and executing them without unnecessary drama.

A co-author of four SharePoint books and author of Leadership in a Zoom Economy with Microsoft Teams, Peter continues to contribute to GitHub and remains closely involved in Azure and Microsoft 365 delivery. He has a mild distrust of unnecessary complexity, a preference for projects delivered on time and on budget, and a habit of asking what organisations are really trying to optimize.

He believes most expensive technology mistakes look impressive at the time — and that simplicity is still enterprise IT’s most underused advantage.

Other traits
- Good O365 trainer and motivator
- Good at thinking on my feet in meetings or complex situations
- I find myself often being able to get to the heart of the issue whilst not ruffling too many feathers
- Love yoga, vegetarian food, and reading Malcolm Gladwell books
