Luis Macchiavello is the Director and Founder of Infomed Research and Training Limited, a role he has held since establishing the company in August 2004. 

In 2021, Luis earned a Master’s degree in Catholic Social Teaching and is currently pursuing a PhD in Theology at St Mary’s University in Twickenham, London. 

From February 1992 to August 2004, Luis served as the Director of Infolog Limited, a London-based company that collaborated with central government and local authorities to organise national policy seminars and forums. These initiatives addressed public policy, human rights, policing, social and education services, as well as issues affecting refugees and asylum seekers. 

Before 1992, Luis held several key roles in both the private sector and local government, including: 

Local Government Business Development Manager at Wang Computers, a U.S.-based company operating in the UK, where he oversaw the delivery of computer business solutions for local government. 

Principal Business Analyst at the London Borough of Lambeth, leading a team of system analysts and programmers to develop computer solutions for social services, housing, education, and finance. 

Business Analyst at Fife Regional Council in Scotland, where he worked with various departments—including social services, finance, education, and police—to define and implement their computer requirements. 

Luis’s remarkable journey began in 1974 when he arrived in Glasgow as a political refugee, following a year of political imprisonment after the 1973 military coup led by General Pinochet in Chile. His resettlement was supported by World University Service and Amnesty International, enabling him to resume his education in Scotland. Luis went on to earn an Honours degree in Mathematics from the University of Stirling and later worked as a Research Assistant at the Health Services Operational Research Unit at Strathclyde University in Glasgow.
