You are never too small to make a difference: Ana Rufino

Tell us about the impact your work has had on so many people's lives. Don't be modest! Give us an example of a story that marked you because you had direct intervention before and after an organization and what positive impact resulted from that.

Since joining Yunit, I've had the opportunity to work with companies from different sectors and with different types of applications.

So far, through the preparation of technically and economically viable projects, it has been possible to contribute directly to the consolidation and growth of several companies in the market. This impact is reflected in the modernisation of their production lines, the improvement and expansion of their infrastructures or the potential for digital and/or green transition. On the other hand, in the case of R&D projects, many companies fail to identify and valorise their R&D activities, thus missing out on important opportunities for their growth. Thus, with the help of these projects, several companies have reached a new level of competitiveness, managing to differentiate themselves in the market and boost their growth.

What do you love most about your job?

What I'm most passionate about in my work is the diversity of sectors of activity and business contexts that we deal with on a daily basis. The possibility of collaborating with companies operating in such different areas, with very different objectives, limitations and
opportunities, provides daily learning so that we can present the best solutions in a customised way that meets the company's growth strategy.

It's particularly rewarding when we can make a real impact on the company, boosting competitiveness, fostering innovation and the creation of different value-added products/processes and improving their sustainability.
