A Telecommunications Engineer from the Polytechnic University of Madrid (UPM), with a Master of Engineering from KTH Stockholm, postgraduate studies at Zhejiang University (China), and an Executive MBA from IESE Business School, Antonio García Romero possesses a solid technical and business background. He has over 15 years of international experience in the technology sector, providing corporate services.
He began his professional career in China with Philips as a development engineer in the field of biophotonics. In 2005, he started his career in strategic consulting at IBM, later assuming international responsibilities at Teldat Group. He has served as Business Development Manager for Asia, based in Beijing, China; International Sales Director in Silicon Valley, USA; and Corporate Vice President of International Sales. In 2017, between New York and Madrid, he founded Fintep, an enterprise software company specializing in Artificial Intelligence for Capital Markets, where he served as CEO for three years. In 2020, he returned to Teldat as Chief Product Officer (CPO), later becoming Deputy Managing Director.
As the new CEO of Teldat, Antonio García Romero will pivot the company's strategy around three central pillars: continuing to create value for its client portfolio by expanding Teldat's offerings with a new catalog of solutions based on the latest market technologies in 5G, cybersecurity (SASE), and adaptive self-learning (CARTA); expanding international presence by double digits with an increase in local staff and distributed R&D centers; and finally, disrupting existing go-to-market models with new business practices such as OT and Zero Trust, especially in emerging fields like IoT and remote office solutions. All of this is already a reality thanks to the extensive experience the Teldat team has demonstrated over many years and the trust placed in the company by leading clients in key sectors of today's economy.
