Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolIgnacio Llorente is a seasoned cloud and edge computing leader with over 12 years of executive experience scaling OpenNebula from an academic project to a widely adopted open-source cloud management platform. As CEO he now drives strategy, innovation and partnerships—recently steering OpenNebula’s role in the €1.2B IPCEI-CIS initiative and leading EU-backed edge projects such as ONEedge. He combines deep academic roots (PhD, long professorship and visiting roles at Harvard and LBNL) with hands-on product and community stewardship, having co-founded key standards work and shepherded thousands of users and large-scale deployments. Ignacio is both a policy advisor and practitioner, chairing the European Alliance’s Edge & Cloud working group and serving as a European Commission cloud expert. Less obvious is his grounding in technical communication: he’s contributed release-note and documentation updates to OpenNebula’s repo, reflecting a persistent focus on clarity and adoption. His profile blends research rigor, public‑policy influence and pragmatic open-source leadership at the intersection of cloud, edge and industrial ecosystems.
