Compañía de Innovación de Santiago.

A Chilean consulting and project development company. We work with research, data, and software for people and organisations.

Who we are

The company is run by Martín Illanes and José Tomás Aguilera. We develop projects for clients and our own products: digital tools, data systems, and publications.

We start by understanding the problem and the people who face it. The work can include research, solution design, development, and operations, depending on what each project needs.

How we are organised

Círculo de Santiago SpA is the parent company of Compañía de Innovación de Santiago SpA. The Company handles the group's technology operations.

Compañía Chilena de Inteligencia de Datos SpA is a separate company, technically operated by the Company. We keep the ownership, operations, and responsibilities of each company separate.

Where we work

We work from Santiago and design for the Chilean context. Our projects combine public data, research, digital publishing, and tools for everyday work.
