JAVIER DAVID CARRLLO ATANACIO
I have studied Computer Science and Information Technology at ABACO, then Information Engineering at the USIL as one of the best students and I am currently preparing for an MA at the POLIMI. I founded my own development company with a friend when I was 18 and then another small company with university mates. I have always been my own boss (I like the business world). I have developed software for Bimbo, OSINERG, CIMAGRAF, LIMAVISION, PERUVISION, and others. I believe that technology is not only to research, but to take advantage of, so, just out of curiosity and effort. I have always believed in self-learning. I firmly believe that educational institutions only teach us 10 or 20 per cent of what we need, but a good book, some magazines, many conversations and plenty of observation of the world, from what the manager of a multinational company shows us to what the candy shop assistant at the corner recommends, that is what will really prepare us for what’s coming next (and if it does not come, we make it come). I am a vegetarian, I love reading, I love music.
