_ MATÍAS TOMBOLINI

I was born in Santa Fe on March 5, 1974. I am an economist, professor, researcher, and author.Soy economista, docente, investigador y autor. I’m married to María Storman and father to Camila, Segundo, and Sofía.
I earned my degree in Economics from the Faculty of Economic Sciences at the University of Buenos Aires in 2001. I later completed a Master’s in International Economic Relations, jointly awarded by FLACSO and the University of Barcelona, and a postgraduate program in the History of Economic Thought, also at FLACSO.

Since 1997, I have been dedicated to university teaching. I currently hold the chair in Economics at the Common Basic Cycle (CBC) and serve as Adjunct Professor of Macroeconomics and Economic Policy at the Faculty of Economic Sciences of the University of Buenos Aires.

Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to contribute as a columnist in mass media, write books to bring economics closer to everyday life, and serve in various public administration roles. In 2016, I received the Martín Fierro Radio Award for Best Political Columnist due to my work on Perros de la Calle. Throughout my career, I have collaborated with media outlets such as Telefe, Radio Mitre, and América TV.

My commitment to public service began at university, as a student activist, and has grown over time. I have run for office on several occasions: in the 2005 and 2009 legislative elections for the Socialist Party; in 2017, as part of the “1Country” (1País) alliance; in 2019, as a candidate for City Mayor of Buenos Aires for the “Federal Consensus” coalition (Consenso Federal); and in 2021, I was part of the list of candidates for National Deputy representing Buenos Aires City on behalf of the Frente de Todos coalition. In 2018, I founded the political party Forward for Social Progress, based in the City of Buenos Aires.

Throughout the years, I’ve published five books aimed at making complex economic concepts more accessible, always with a clear and practical approach. In public service, I have held several roles: President of the Economic and Social Council of Buenos Aires City (2018), Vice President of the Bank of the Argentine Nation (2019–2022), President of ARSAT (2022), and National Secretary of Domestic Trade (2022–2023).

Today, I work as an independent economic consultant and advisor. I also lead projects focused on technological development and artificial intelligence applied to economic analysis and the national situation.

_ MY FAITH

“I have complete faith in the oneness of God, in the truth of the Torah, and in the responsibility for our actions.”

Maimónides

I am a practicing Jew. Judaism is a central part of my identity and accompanies me in my daily life, guiding my values, my decisions, and the way I relate to others.

I believe in one God, in the importance of ethical action, social justice, and the transmission of knowledge. The observance of Shabbat, study, and the traditions of my people are pillars that inspire and strengthen me.
