I am Edivandro Conforto, widely known as Dr Eddi. I am a management scientist, executive advisor, and entrepreneur operating at the frontier of strategy, artificial intelligence, innovation, and large scale organizational transformation. My work is defined by a rare combination of deep scientific training and sustained executive level experience.

I advise C-suite executives, board members, and global institutions on high-stakes transformation, combining the redesign of global research agendas and original models for AI readiness with hands-on leadership of multimillion-dollar transformation programs, innovation portfolios, and enterprise-wide strategic initiatives. My work supports Fortune 500 companies and advanced R&D organizations in navigating disruption, redesigning operating models, and opening new business frontiers in environments defined by speed, complexity, and accelerating technological change.

My thinking and applied work are used globally to guide artificial intelligence adoption in management and professional work, redesign operating and governance models, strengthen enterprise agility, and reimagine research, development, and digital organizational structures.

My academic background includes a post doctorate at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT, USA) and a PhD and Master’s degree from the University of São Paulo (USP). I am the author of ten books and more than fifty publications published in leading international journals and professional outlets.

My research has received global recognition from institutions such as IPMA, POMS, PMIEF, and PMI, positioning me among the most awarded management scientists in the global project and operations management community.

I am the Founder, CEO, and Chief Technology & Scientist of Humans in the Loop HiLOOP™, where I lead the design of proprietary AI driven platforms, diagnostics, and strategic frameworks that help organizations adopt artificial intelligence with governance, strategic intent, and performance impact. My work focuses on market making strategies, future proof operating models, and the disciplined integration of AI into decision systems without surrendering human judgment.

Our role is independent, evidence driven, and outcome oriented. We diagnose systemic and structural challenges, design next generation strategies, architect future proof and intelligent operating models, and support leaders in opening new market spaces created by technological and organizational shifts.
