Accompanied by the emblems of these prestigious institutions.

Hello, first of all, nice to meet you.

I could tell you many things about my story, but since you are on my website… I promise to focus on the more professional aspects.

I am an author, speaker and communicator specialized in emerging technologies and society, with academic training from the IAE, UBA and UADE. In addition, I have participated in significant courses and executive programs at UdeSA and at the global headquarters of Google and Facebook in San Francisco.

I hold an MBA from the IAE Business School of the Universidad Austral and I am the Marketing Manager for Latin America at Maytronics, an industry-leading public company of Israeli origin, specializing in home robotics (MTRN:TA).

I have given more than 400 conferences in more than 18 countries on emerging technologies at prestigious forums such as the G20 Entrepreneurs Summit, TEDx, Campus Party, eMerge Americas and Endeavor. Furthermore, I have a regular presence in media such as CNN, Telemundo, Univisión, La Nación and Infobae. Additionally, I am currently an opinion columnist for Diario Perfil and general coordinator of its Assembly of the Future.

I’ve had the honor of being recognized with prestigious awards for my contributions to the field of emerging technology dissemination. As an author, in 2020, I launched my first book ‘7R: The Seven Technological Revolutions That Will Change Our Lives’. Subsequently, in 2021, I launched my second book, ‘The Human Dilemma: From Homo Sapiens to Homo Tech’ and in 2024, my third book: Post-Tech: Skills to Recover What Is Human.

I welcome the opportunity for a fruitful conversation and mutual empowerment. Please feel free to reach out to me at joan.cwaik@gmail.com.

I serve as the Latin America Marketing Manager for Maytronics, a top-tier innovator and purveyor of swimming pool cleaning robots. Notably, we’re the creators of the widely-loved Dolphin series. We made waves by being the first to bring domestic robots to the households of Argentina and the broader Latin American region.
