In its 2024 edition, the College of Engineers of Chile presented the National Person, National Company, and Management Awards. These awards recognize the achievements of a company and two distinguished engineers for their contributions to engineering development and international recognition, marked by assertive leadership focused on the growth of their teams and organizations.
José Orlandini, our Corporate President and a civil and electrical engineer from the University of Chile received the Management Award for his strategic planning and leadership in executing numerous global technological projects that have positively impacted people's lives.
"I am deeply honored by this recognition from the College of Engineers. This award is also for the more than 15,000 employees at SONDA. We will continue to innovate and develop new technologies, proving that engineering improves life's quality and connects people, cultures, and countries," said Orlandini.
Orlandini's leadership has been more than pivotal in SONDA's growth and expansion. His innovative approach in creating specialized IT solutions tailored to specific industries and needs, and his ability to integrate technologies across various regions, has been truly inspiring.
During Orlandini's management, notable achievements include opening offices in North America and securing contracts with major companies in Brazil, Chile, Mexico, Colombia, and Uruguay. These efforts have resulted in positive financial outcomes and double-digit annual growth rates.
