The Global Connected and Open innovation Technology Hub

Good day to all, my dear readers. Today I'll decide to start with the world's most popular global, connected and open innovation technology hub, which called Wayra. It has been operating for exactly 10 years, because Wayra was founded by Marta Antunez in 2011. Wayra is headquartered in the European Union (EU). In theory, this is a venture capital company. And I want to inform t you about one interesting fact that Wayra is a Sub-Organization of Telefonica. Maybe so it should come as no surprise that the main mission of this venture capital firm is to unite innovators with Telefonica and of course create joint business opportunities. This global, connected and technology center focuses on Industries such as Incubators, Innovation Management and Business Development. This company is well known in other countries, and this is evidenced by the fact that it cooperates and operates in 10 countries, such as Venezuela, Argentina, Chile, Brazil, Spain, Mexico, Great Britain, Germany, Colombia and Peru. You can imagine Wayra has made 1,184 investments and 25 diversity investments. Besides this this technology center has 36 exits. The most important exits for them are PositiveID, Sirena and Wayin. This company has 57 current employee profiles and 12 board members and advisors, which also shows that the company is doing a great job and needs good employees. As for their official website, I am able to say that Wayra uses 7 technologies for its website, such as LetsEncrypt, Google Analytics and WordPress. To all of the above, I want to add that Wayra has 7 centers in Latin America and Europe. They invest in startups, and by going to their portfolio you will see that there is a huge list of countries with which they have worked and are working. Wayra's portfolio includes over 400 companies, of which 100 are closely related to Telefonica. Let me tell you why Wayra is so popular these days. I'll start by saying that they provide good opportunities for digital startups looking to enter the consumer market, validate their offer, and of course grow. For consumers, it is like an open window for innovation, because it provides a chance to easily discover the best new digital services and trends, share your feedback with other consumers and entrepreneurs to improve and develop offerings. This is why they say that startups and consumers team up to create innovation. And I love their website.
