Perfil Profesional

  • Andrés Felipe García Suaza es economista y Doctor en Economía de la Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, con una trayectoria que integra consultoría e investigación aplicada. Su trabajo se caracteriza por conectar el análisis económico, la analítica avanzada de datos y el conocimiento de los mercados con problemas concretos de política pública, estrategia empresarial, competitividad y desarrollo territorial. Cuenta con una amplia experiencia liderando y desarrollando proyectos de consultoría y extensión para organismos multilaterales, entidades del Gobierno nacional, gobiernos locales, empresas, gremios y organizaciones nacionales e internacionales. A lo largo de su trayectoria ha trabajado con instituciones como el Banco Interamericano de Desarrollo (BID), el Banco Mundial, la Organización Internacional del Trabajo (OIT), el DANE, la ANDI, Porvenir y Bancolombia, además de diversas entidades públicas y gobiernos territoriales. Su experiencia abarca mercado laboral, productividad y competitividad, desarrollo empresarial y regional, informalidad, inclusión económica y financiera, evaluación de políticas y programas, prospectiva laboral y análisis sectorial y territorial.
    Esta trayectoria se complementa con su papel como coordinador del Observatorio Laboral de la Universidad del Rosario e investigador asociado del Centro de Estudios para la Competitividad Regional (SCORE), espacios desde los cuales articula investigación, información y relacionamiento con actores públicos y privados alrededor de los desafíos del mercado laboral, la productividad y la competitividad regional.
    Su propuesta de valor está en transformar problemas complejos en evidencia útil para la decisión. Combina econometría aplicada, ciencia y analítica de datos, evaluación de impacto y análisis económico con una comprensión de los contextos institucionales, empresariales y territoriales. Esta combinación le permite acompañar a organizaciones desde la identificación y estructuración de un problema hasta el diseño de soluciones, la medición de resultados y la formulación de recomendaciones accionables.
