Through its open-source, multi-platform software, Prey is helping people around the world track
down and recover their lost or stolen computers, tablets and mobile phones. Given that the
number of mobile phones in Latin America alone is expected to reach 1 billion worldwide by 2015,
the opportunity for selling anti-theft software for all digital devices is considerable.

Launched in 2006, OTS has quickly gone from being a pure mobile messaging and bulk SMS
provider in Saudi Arabia to providing a diverse range of digital communication services to clients
across the Middle East. As a digital communication platform and service provider, OTS works with
clients from a broad range of industries through local offices in Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Sudan, Bahrain,
Qatar, Jordan and the UAE
There is nothing virtual about the very real customer service problems that Aivo is helping to
solve. At the intersection of technology, linguistics and marketing, Aivo develops virtual customer
service agents that intelligently recognize, interpret and respond to written client questions across
diverse digital channels. At nearly 80% less cost than their human counterparts, virtual agents are
changing the face of the multi-billion dollar customer service industry. AgentBot, Aivo's chat-based
virtual agent, differentiates itself with personality and strong linguistic ability in deciphering written
Spanish, English and Portuguese across its regional complexity.
In 2003 Guibert co-founded Globant, a company that quickly became a global leader in the
creation of innovative software products. Just eight years later, Globant boasts 3,200 employees,
an entirely fresh approach to the IT services industry, a blue chip customer list and has become
a global role model for entrepreneurship. As Globant CTO, he leads the Premier League, an elite
group of technology gurus whose main role is to think out of the box for their customers, and
Globant Labs, a playground for the exploration of new technologies. When he is not sailing or
eating barbecue, Guibert spends his time thinking about the next disruptive project that will shake
the IT industry. Guibert is also the Vice President of Endeavor Argentina.
