FOUNDER & CEO
Juan Andrés Duarte
Leadership that navigates complexity
“The port sector does not operate in a vacuum. Every terminal is a node of decisions: concession policies, investment models, global supply chains and geopolitical pressures that translate into tonnage, routes and contracts. We have been working at that intersection since 2011. What we do is not generic consulting: it is specialized advisory built on more than 45,000 hours of real work across 24 countries.”
