My perspective
Benjamín Castro
Leadership, operations, growth and expansion in education · Founder of GloCal
Professional profile on LinkedIn ↗I have led educational institutions and operations as CEO, COO and in growth and expansion roles. I focus on how strategy translates into decisions across product, technology, marketing, service, operations and finance. I write about these connections and what they mean for the student experience. I believe growth requires adapting the offer to each market without losing financial discipline. GloCal is a space to share that perspective, exchange ideas with other professionals and explore collaboration where it makes sense.
I am the founder of GloCal Education & EdTech Consulting, one of the ways in which I share that professional perspective.

When conversation leads to collaboration.
GloCal Education & EdTech Consulting connects my professional perspective with a dedicated space for ideas and collaboration. The articles carry my name and reflect my views; GloCal’s consulting offering has its own scope. This website offers a way to understand how I think and, where there is a shared challenge, explore whether working together makes sense.
