The story of Respira Internet told by its owners
About us
The story of Respira Internet begins a long, long time ago, in the XX century, when its partners were still in high school. These are the main milestones:
When it all began
Guillermo and César, partners of Respira Internet, meet in classroom 3ºA of the Instituto Ciudad de los Poetas in Madrid (high school).
The big question
César and Guillermo wonder, wouldn't it be great to start something together? Time would tell.
Paths diverge
Guillermo would study at the Universidad Autonoma in Madrid. César at the Universidad Complutense, also in Madrid.
Graduation
César would start working in Spain. Guillermo was clear he would go abroad.
The decision to start a business
After working in various places, César decides to start his first company, SAGIE. It fails, but he learns from it.
Gaining international experience
Guillermo continues his professional journey in Ireland. There, he will work at Oracle.
In Torrevieja
After working as a controller, César starts developing websites first, and then web applications. He founds Respira Internet on September 14, 2012.
Return to Spain
Guillermo will continue his professional career at the Oracle headquarters in Las Rozas.
Respira Internet keeps growing
Respira Internet develops increasingly complex projects like Inmolite (a Wix for real estate agencies).
Back to Madrid
For both personal and professional reasons, César moves back to Madrid, while maintaining his clients in Torrevieja and throughout Spain.
Guillermo joins Zendesk
After a varied career at Oracle, Guillermo decides to bet on a more modern and customer-oriented company. None better than Zendesk, where he would stay for almost 2 years, and from which he left to try his luck in a Start Up.
Zendesk's first project
After reviewing their professional careers, César and Guillermo decide that the best way to add value to other companies is by implementing Zendesk. The first project would be an old client of Respira Internet, tunuve.
Guillermo becomes an owner of Respira
After the success of this first integration, Respira Internet starts implementing Zendesk in companies in Spain and Europe. Guillermo becomes a 50% partner, being responsible for consulting and sales. César would be responsible for the technical and administrative part.
WhatsApp Connector
Partly as a side business, and partly as a way to learn and demonstrate our capabilities, we developed the Zendesk WhatsApp Connector, which is now a cornerstone of our activity.
Exclusively Zendesk
Seeing the success achieved by implementing Zendesk in numerous companies, we decided to specialize in projects revolving around Zendesk.
