DUBAI, UAE, February 11, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

Carlos Valdecantos has recently joined Delta Partners as a Partner. Carlos will actively contribute to the advisory business in the Middle East, Africa and Central and Eastern Europe regions being based in Delta Partners' Barcelona office.

Carlos joins Delta Partners with extensive experience in the management consulting business in the TMT industry.  Before joining Delta Partners Carlos had been advising all major telecom firms in Europe, Africa and the Middle East as a Partner of mmC Group, a strategy TMT consulting boutique he founded in 2005.  Prior to that, Carlos had been a senior Principal with DiamondCluster (now Oliver Wyman) working across Europe, Latin America and North Africa.

The hiring of Carlos will mean mmC will integrate into Delta Partners from now onwards. "Integrating mmC Group within Delta Partners comes as a natural evolution for us," says Carlos. "In light of this move, our clients will now be able to leverage a larger company with more scale and an excellent track record. I'm excited to support Delta Partners' efforts to capitalize on this great opportunity."

"We are confident Carlos Valdecantos will make significant contributions to the growth of Delta Partners helping our continued diversification efforts in new regions, in line with our strategic objectives," said Victor Font, Group Managing Director in Delta Partners.

He is used to leading large, multidisciplinary teams, and his experience covers strategy to implementation projects, having been responsible for over 50 assignments with more than 30 TMT players across Europe, Latin America, Middle East and Africa.

Carlos has a M. Sc in Science Physics and Electronics from the Universidad Complutense de Madrid and has taken advanced courses in International Business and International Marketing Strategies during his tenure at PWC and DiamondCluster.
