Career Biography

Ciro Gimenez is General Counsel, LATAM & Canada at Carestream International – Midea, where he leads the region’s legal function across corporate, commercial, competition, compliance, labor, and litigation matters.

Ciro joined Carestream in 2012 and has spent over a decade building the company’s legal presence across Latin America and Canada. Most recently, he led the legal separation and transition of Carestream’s international operations into a new standalone entity, and supported its integration into Midea Group — a global technology group headquartered in China spanning smart home, industrial technology, robotics and automation, building technologies, energy, healthcare, and smart logistics — coordinating contract migration, cross-border compliance, and interim service arrangements across multiple jurisdictions.

Among his recent work, Ciro led a significant cross-border competition law matter spanning multiple jurisdictions, coordinating with regulators to reach a successful resolution (specific details remain confidential). He also managed the wind-down of a regional entity and the transition of contract operations following a corporate divestiture, all while operating as the sole in-house counsel for the region — a model built around lean, repeatable legal frameworks rather than headcount growth.

Ciro holds a law degree from Argentina and is based in Guadalajara, Mexico, where he continues to advise the region’s business leadership on legal strategy, risk management, and organisational resilience.
