Roberto Rosales Santiago's Linkedin Analytics

3rd generation of Travel professionals, our relationship with the Industry begins with my Grandfather Carlos who in the 60's was GSA of KLM in Bahía Blanca, south of the Buenos Aires province. My aunt Celina worked at Furlong and Organfur, and in 1985, with my Parents, she founded TC Asociados, a travel agency where I worked with my brother Carlos. The turn of the century meant a new beginning for my career, I was fortunate to work in some of the companies that revolutionized the travel industry: I participated in the Despegar start-up. I worked for over 8 years at Sabre, where I led the creation of its first Hotels' B2B, TotalTrip. The Sabre experience shaped me as a technology professional, here in Buenos Aires Sabre had a global development center with more than 400 developers. It was a very dynamic environment and we learned to collaborate between the Business and Technology areas, we had constant training on Agile methodologies, project management, interface development (both UX & UI) and how to integrate different platforms. In early 2014 I joined Expedia Partner Solutions, and with the Latin American team we developed their business in the region providing not only hotel content, but also technology and digital marketing consulting for all types of tourism companies, OTAs, wholesalers, airlines and consolidators. Those were years of many trips, I toured the entire region and had the privilege to participate in many projects, advising and collaborating with leading companies. I also worked in the Product area of ​​Almundo.com. And my last work experience was at Novae, a Fintech Start-Up where I developed the Tourism Product for the Visa Loyalty Solutions platform. Then in late 2021, together with my Partners, we founded CUBO and MarketplaceMAX to provide Digital Transformation and e-Commerce consulting services. Now I am working at XENI on bringing Web3 technology to the Travel Industry.
