NEW
YORK, Feb. 1, 2023 /CNW/ - MiMedia Holdings
Ltd. (TSXV: MIM) is pleased to announce the addition of Mr.
Guillermo Robles to the MiMedia team
as Vice President of Partnerships.
Mr. Robles is a 20+ year experienced senior executive dedicated
to creating and developing sustainable, productive, and strong
relations with global smartphone manufacturers as well as many
other connected devices and sim cards for the Latin America
Region.
His former role as VP of Procurement & Business Development
for América Móvil Group allowed him to work with the largest device
manufacturers in the world as well as the leading local brands in
Latin America to create one of the
strongest device portfolios in the region. Among other important
responsibilities, Mr. Robles every year led the determination of
how many smartphones (10's of millions of devices), what type and
from which brands América Móvil Group and its subsidiaries would
purchase to sell directly to its consumers.
Founded by Carlos Slim, América
Móvil is the leading integrated telecommunications services company
in Latin America with leading
market presence in 23 countries in the Americas and Europe under its primary brands Telcel and
Claro, among others. In 2021, América Móvil reported over 287
million wireless subscribers globally and $41.6 Billion USD in revenue (source: 2021 Annual
Report / 20-F). Based on these subscriber numbers, América Móvil
would be the largest telecom carrier in the world if excluding the
leading telecom carriers in India
and China.
"We could not be more excited to add Guillermo to our business
development and senior executive team. At América Móvil, Guillermo
held for decades one of the most important and strategic positions
in the largest and most influential telecom carrier on the Latin
American continent. His strong reputation in the telco and
smartphone industries is widespread across the globe. I have no
doubt he will deepen and accelerate our business development
opportunities not only in LATAM but in Asia and other countries and importantly in
both of our target partner industries – telecom carriers and device
manufacturers", said Chris Giordano,
MiMedia's CEO.
"I'm thrilled to join MiMedia and its extraordinary team and
grow with such a great company and unique platform. I have no doubt
we will create many opportunities and add great value to device
manufacturers, telecom carriers and consumers
around the globe", said Mr. Robles.
