From his charming family life and love for mountain biking to his passion for home automation and sweets, Ruben's multifaceted personality shines through. Find out how his journey from Malaga, Spain, to Lisbon, Portugal, and his deep appreciation for Portuguese culture and festivals like Saint-Jean and Saint-Antonio, have influenced both his personal and professional life.

Ruben's professional saga is equally compelling. He reveals the remarkable scale of Power Platform adoption within his company, uncovering a landscape of over 40 environments, 2,000 flows, 750+ power apps, and more. Learn how this discovery catalyzed the formation of a dedicated team to govern and optimize the platform, transforming simple apps into robust systems integrated with Dynamics F&O. Ruben shares invaluable insights on making these apps highly configurable, leveraging tools like Dataverse, SharePoint, Canvas Apps, Power Automate, and RPA, and the critical role of effective communication in managing large-scale implementations.
