"Fortune favors the bold"

Virgil’s The Aeneid, Book X, paragraph 284.

On a January night in the year 49 B.C., Gaius Julius Caesar hesitantly stopped before the Rubicon River. Crossing it meant that he was declaring war on Rome. In front of those reddish waters, stained by the iron deposits in the riverbed, he pronounced an immortal phrase: “Alea iacta est”: The die is cast. And he headed for Rome.

Today, “crossing the Rubicon” is less about “passing a point of no return” and more about embarking on a decisive venture or project that makes an important mark in your personal or corporate history.

EXECUTIVE LEADERSHIP

Lucio Fernando
Chirinos

Founder & CEO

MESSAGE FROM CEO

I am Lucio Fernando Chirinos, Founder and CEO of Rubicon & Partners. Crossing the Rubicon has a very special meaning for me. It represents “the second part of my life”.

I decided to seek new horizons and new opportunities. I left my country behind, as well as a successful career of almost 20 years in the corporate world. Why? Because of the possibilities a new country could give me and my family, both on a personal and a professional level. My Rubicon was the Atlantic Ocean. Crossing it meant encountering new challenges and new perspectives. I decided to become an entrepreneur and I also realized something as valuable as Julius Caesar in this time: Risking it all can give you more than you could ever imagine, whether your crossing is from Latin America to Europe or the other way around.

During these years of professional development, I have had the great honor of working in many different industries and international companies. I have, among others, held senior positions as the CEO of two major automotive companies and as Managing Director in asset management focused on alternative investments.

Throughout my career, I have also had the opportunity to conduct international business. With Asia, Europe, the US and LATAM. This has given me a solid intercultural know-how when negotiating and developing personal relationships in different contexts. I also know the legal, accounting and tax requirements and aspects that a company needs to fulfill when undertaking an international project.

As a senior corporate executive, I use my experience to assist companies by providing them with the best business advice in all fields necessary to successfully develop their international expansion projects in the most satisfactory, cost-effective and compliant manner and to find the common ground that ensures that cultural barriers never become an obstacle.

As a parent having arrived in a new country, I want to assist you who also decided to take a step away from home and start a new personal or family project, giving you answers to all the doubts you might have. My mission is to provide you with a set of comprehensive relocation solutions. We as a company aspire to help you make your journey, adaptation and incorporation to the new country as comfortable as possible for everyone involved.

Thank you for trusting Rubicon & Partners
