Onésimo Alvarez-Moro’s Summary

I have spent 25 years working in international business, as an investment banker, financial advisor, consultant and, most recently, as an entrepreneur, while publishing my own weblog, Governance Focus (www.governancefocus.com), and as a regular contributor to the most visited Spanish-language financial weblog, El Blog Salmón (www.elblogsalmon.com).

I have also spent years working with private equity groups advising on acquisitions and investments and working with entrepreneurs assisting them in developing their business strategies leading to private equity. I have developed and maintain relationships with private equity groups both in the US and in Europe.

Most recently I have worked as a consultant and entrepreneur specifically in the private equity-backed internet and related technology space.
