Federico Morán

Federico Morán

Empecé a programar a los 15 años pero no fue hasta el tercer año de la carrera de producción de cine, que me di cuenta que la aplicación que había estando desarrollando para administrar los recursos de los proyectos audiovisuales de la facultad tenía un real potencial de negocio si lo adaptaba a otras industrias.

Entonces decidí crear el primer sistema de gestión empresarial que sea compatible con todos los negocios, de todos los rubros y tamaños (no lo intenten en sus casas).

El desarrollo de WorkOS Cloud me llevó varios años y los desafíos que me propuso su naturaleza versátil me llevaron a detectar necesidades tecnológicas no solo del mercado, sino del mundo en sí.

Fue entonces que en paralelo comencé el desarrollo de un ecosistema de tecnologías que pretendo, tengan impacto tecnológico, productivo y social en el mundo.

Este ecosistema esta interrelacionado y comparte una visión interoperable y en especial desburocratizada del mundo que viene.

Uno de los desarrollos, por ejemplo, que consiste en una serie de protocolos para estandarizar, simplificar y facilitar la conexión de todas las operaciones financieras fue seleccionado y reconocido en el Programa de Innovación Financiera del BCRA.

En tanto a lo comercial, continué desarrollando aplicaciones satélite para abordar mercados específicos de manera efectiva aprovechando la infraestructura de WorkOS Cloud.

El continuo trabajo de investigación, análisis e implementación que requirió no solo el desarrollo técnico de WorkOS Cloud, las aplicaciones satélite, los trabajos privados y protocolos, sino también el desarrollo de esquemas organizacionales escalables y de marketing estratégico, me hizo adquirir una visión particular y muy panorámica de todo el proceso de creación y adaptación social de productos, servicios y tecnologías en todas sus instancias.

Actualmente estoy en busca de establecer los desarrollos comerciales en el mercado y crear mi marca personal para impulsar la comunidad de los proyectos abiertos interrelacionados.

Veo en Nerdearla una gran posibilidad de abrirme al mundo y presentar la experiencia que estuve reuniendo los últimos años.

A Passion for Impact:
I'm a dedicated volunteer with a strong commitment to social good, environmental stewardship, and youth empowerment. Throughout my journey, I've actively participated in various initiatives that address critical issues and promote positive change.

Education and Global Citizenship:
My passion for education led me to join the STEM Ambassadors program in August 2023. There, I contribute to igniting enthusiasm for science, technology, engineering, and math in younger generations. This aligns with my experience as an International Mentor with the OCIIP since January 2022, where I guide and support aspiring innovators and creators.

In August 2023, I participated as a Delegate at the Nexus Model United Nations, gaining valuable experience in diplomacy and global cooperation. Previously, in October 2020, I took part in the Youth International Summit Model UN, further solidifying my interest in international affairs.

Environmental Advocacy and Action:
Combating climate change is a crucial concern for me. Since November 2021, I've served as a Climate Action Project Educator with Take Action Global, actively raising awareness and inspiring others to take action. Additionally, I volunteered with the Environment and Safety Volunteer Corps from August 2020 to August 2022, contributing to environmental protection and safety initiatives.

Promoting Goodwill and Social Change:
Currently, I hold the prestigious position of Ambassador with the Global Goodwill Ambassadors Foundation (GGAF) since March 2024. This role allows me to champion social causes and advocate for a more just and equitable world.

My Commitment Continues:
My volunteer experiences have instilled in me a lifelong dedication to making a difference. I'm eager to leverage my skills and knowledge to continue contributing to positive social and environmental change.
