LATAM, Wednesday, March 18, 2026. Cirion Technologies announced a strategic restructuring of its executive team to further solidify its position as the leading Tier 1 network in the region. Given the growing importance of digital infrastructure in today’s economy, this new structure is designed to accelerate decision-making and strengthen integration across key markets in a high-demand environment.

“This is a new Cirion. We have reorganized our leadership to move onto the offensive—making faster decisions, integrating regional operations, and elevating the performance of our Tier 1 network and interconnected data centers platform. This enables AI and cloud workloads with lower latency, greater capacity, and higher resilience for our customers across Latin America,” said Santiago Londoño, CEO of the Connectivity business at Cirion Technologies.

Juanita Bejarano, Senior Vice President of Human Resources for LATAM at Cirion Technologies, added: “In 2026, our culture will be customer-centric, execution-driven, and built on collaboration. We empower our teams to make decisions and simplify processes so that every plan translates into tangible results such as growth, network excellence, digital transformation, and operational efficiency across the region.”

With cloud growth in the region projected to reach 60% by 2030, Cirion is adapting its structure to ensure that its more than 105,000 km fiber network and its data centers operate under a unified vision of excellence and resilience.

At a time when other global players are also strengthening regional leadership and consolidating operations to meet demand, Cirion differentiates itself by prioritizing the integration of key markets into a single service and management platform. This trend reflects the need for increasingly robust and agile infrastructure, aligned with best practices observed among leading global operators.
