With a clear desire to disrupt the status quo in every opportunity he finds, Gabriel Weinstein is the Ambassador of Singularity University in Argentina and Partner and Director of Innovation at Olivia, a company focused on transforming organizations to meet the challenges of this new era. He is an innovative leader with more than 15 years of experience and a combination of strategic and business skills.

His entrepreneurial and leadership characteristics led him to start a number of technology-based companies, including Virtualmind Software House. The experience and knowledge gained throughout his career, led him to become an advisor to other companies and entrepreneurs.

Passionate about technology, a lover of freedom and with the conviction that education is the pillar that will allow us to evolve as a society, he became a teacher and then director of educational innovation, with the clear purpose of transforming the educational system using new technologies and creative solutions.

In December 2015, Gabriel was invited by the Minister of Education of Argentina to design and lead Infinito por Descubrir, a non-formal education initiative that deploys educational innovation centers throughout the country, where children learn based on real projects that combine disciplines such as programming, robotics, music and biotechnology, encouraging the use of technologies and the development of social-emotional skills such as leadership, collaboration and critical thinking.

Gabriel graduated from college in computer science with the third highest academic achievement.

In 2014, he was selected to be part of GSP, Singularity University's flagship program, an organization that educates, inspires and empowers leaders around the world in applying exponential technologies to solve the great challenges of mankind. After returning to Argentina, he was recognized as one of the 35 most inspiring, creative and talented youngsters under 35 years old in the country.

Currently, Gabriel is Olivia's partner and director of innovation, dedicating much of his time to mentoring, speaking, advisoring and carrying out social impact activities.
