He runs the centre of Moraleja, a town where José Miguel has become a reference for any ICT training, not only on basic digital skills, but also when talking about coding, video game design and social innovation projects.
José Miguel manages the social networks of the local Cancer Association and cooperates with disabled people associations. José Miguel is literally dedicated to the local community, not only while doing his job, but also during his free time.

SOCIAL IMPACT

As he says: “I would have never though that so many projects will be born in this centre when I started”
