Simón is an experienced operator and entrepreneur with a background in finance, strategy, and scaling up companies. He was the founder and CEO of Bageera, the first European platform solely focused on structuring financing vehicles for natural capital assets. Prior to the launch of Bageera, Simón was an Associate at Morgan Stanley’s Investment Banking Division, where he worked on structuring M&A and capital market deals for real assets and infrastructure companies.
