Sandra Sinde is a USC Economics graduate, specialising in International Economics. She holds a Master’s in International Internet Law, a postgraduate degree in cooperative and SME management, and has completed a course in innovation leadership at MIT. She is a SCRUM Master. I started my career more than 23 years ago, working as an independent technical consultant for a Spanish regional government and other dependent agencies within the field of design, management and evaluation of innovative technology projects. From within the private sector, during the last 17 years I have travelled more than three times the distance from earth to the moon in support of more than 10 countries in the field of open innovation, entrepreneurship, promotion of Govtech ecosystems, in addition to different international organisations: CE, IDB, BM, CAF and UNDP. I have been a pioneer in the PPI field in Latin America and have accompanied the Galician Health Service in its PPI initiatives for the last 10 years, with international recognition. I have been committed to both dissemination and training in the field of open innovation and digital transformation, impacting more than 6000 people across almost 100 events, forums and workshops to raise awareness and provide training at an international level. I have been involved in multiple publications on blogs and social media, and in specialist magazines and manuals on innovation and public procurement. I am an IDB consultant in the field of innovation policy. In 2018, I was included in the Referentes Gallegas initiative, which includes outstanding Galician women at international level, and in 2022 I was also recognised as an Inspiring Woman by WCC. I have promoted the first international PPI Blog: www.idomcpi.com and the Ibero-American IPC Forum: www.forocpi.com
