Eduardo is a co-founder and executive director at Planet Innovation, a technology development and commercialisation company with over 250 in-house professionals. Planet Innovation is recognised as one of Australia's most innovative companies, winning The Australian Financial Review's Most Innovative Companies award three times.

Planet Innovation builds businesses by combining existing technology in a commercially focused way. Eduardo has been directly responsible for the conception, development and commercialisation of several new multi-million dollar technologies, including industry-changing products for Australian fertility business Genea who recently sold for $250m.
