About

Santiago Rabassa is described by one nominator as ‘a seasoned business adviser who can always find ways to solve even the most difficult problems’. Since 2015 he has supported the global biopharmaceutical company Alexion in Latin America and has won praise for helping to align the company’s business strategy to the regional market, ‘adding a huge amount of value by bringing his extensive knowledge and experience of regulatory regimes and transactional structures to bear on [Alexion’s] activities’. Before joining Alexion, Rabassa was Covidien’s US-based vice president and general counsel for Latin America and, for a time, Canada. He joined shortly after Covidien’s spin-off from Tyco Healthcare in 2007 and remained as a key advisor until its 2015 merger with Medtronic. He has also held a number of senior legal positions at companies in the telecoms and technology sector, including Autodesk, Marconi Communications and Global One (previously Sprint International). He began his career at Curtis, Mallet-Prevost, Colt & Mosle where he worked as an associate in Washington, DC, and later Mexico City.
