That's how I needed to start my Saturday. A moment of calm in the Institut français en #Madrid with a treat from Aux Merveilleux de Fred. Ganache et pain au lait. Café au lait. Relax. Forget. Breathe. Repeat.

#Amazon partners with #Globalstar (& #Apple) to expand satellite connectivity.
Space is no longer just exploration. It’s infrastructure. Big tech now in orbit. Connectivity, data, and control of the next layer of the internet.
LEO is getting crowded.

Proud moment as an IESE alum 🙌
Ranked #4 worldwide in the FT MBA 2026 ranking and consistently in the global top 5.
Beyond rankings, it’s the people, values, and lifelong network that truly make the difference.
Congrats to the whole @iese.bsky.social community 👏

Moments like this bring back LEOP memories: the wait, the tension, then that call… separation confirmed.
Huge congrats to @esa.int , GMV, Alén Space & all teams on #Celeste. After years of preparation, the satellites are now alive in orbit and ready to grow. 🚀
