Hi, I'm Manuel Legrand. After graduating from MIT with a degree in Mechanical Engineering and spending over a decade leading technical programs at Capital One, Fitbit, and Vecna Technologies, I returned to Puerto Rico with a mission: to help local businesses access the same world-class technology and methodologies that power global enterprises.
My journey from engineering complex systems at MIT to managing cross-functional teams of 30+ engineers and multi-million dollar budgets taught me that success isn't just about having the best technology—it's about understanding how to apply it in ways that create real business value.
Completing my MBA at Babson added the business acumen needed to bridge the gap between technical possibilities and strategic outcomes. This unique combination allows me to speak both languages fluently: the language of technology and the language of business.
Today, through Legrand Digital Solutions, I'm committed to democratizing access to enterprise-level digital transformation for Puerto Rico's small and medium businesses. Because I believe that with the right technology partner, any business can compete globally.

Puerto Rico has incredible talent, entrepreneurial spirit, and strategic advantages that are often underutilized due to limited access to modern technology and methodologies.
After seeing how the right technology can transform businesses in Silicon Valley, I knew I had to bring these capabilities home. Puerto Rico businesses deserve access to the same tools and expertise that power global enterprises.
My mission is simple: help Puerto Rico businesses not just compete, but lead in the global digital economy. By combining world-class expertise with deep local knowledge, we create solutions that actually work for our unique market.
