🌍 Professional Profile
Abel Lafuente Elizalde is a Spanish entrepreneur, innovator, and creator with more than twenty years of experience in security, technology, and social entrepreneurship.
As Founder and CEO of Aglaya Creativos (Spain), he has led the development of technological systems that combine prevention, social inclusion, and global awareness, creating a unique model that transforms personal and community safety.
He is the creator of the Centinela Bracelet, a patented technology for the detection of drugs and the prevention of chemical submission (spiking), which gave rise to the Centinela Movement, now present across Europe and Latin America.
His impact has been recognized by international organizations such as the United Nations and the International Red Cross, as well as by global media outlets that have highlighted his leadership in social innovation and public safety.
💼Expansion and Creation of AGLAYA GLOBAL LLC (U.S.)
Throughout its history, Aglaya Creativos (Spain) has not only been the driving force behind the Centinela Bracelet, but also a platform for social innovation with more than a decade of experience in educational, prevention, and awareness campaigns at the international level.
From its beginnings, Abel Lafuente has led creative projects in collaboration with the United Nations, developing the educational program “La Familia Tectónica”—a playful learning tool that teaches children how to act during earthquakes and natural disasters. This project was incorporated into the official early-education textbooks across Latin America, benefiting thousands of students in countries with seismic risk.
Under his leadership, Aglaya has also promoted road-safety and responsible-drinking campaigns, as well as awareness programs in schools and youth centers, always with the same purpose: to prevent, educate, and generate positive social impact.
These achievements consolidate Aglaya Creativos as a company deeply committed to safety, education, and purposeful innovation.
In 2025, Abel founded Aglaya Global LLC, headquartered in Florida (U.S.), as the global center for the technological and social expansion of the Centinela ecosystem.
Its mission is to bring to the United States a proven European model based on human-centered technology, inclusive employment, and international collaboration in safety and prevention.
Aglaya Global LLC will focus on:
• The group’s brands and patents (Centinela, GuardianGO, FLOW, Silent PIN, etc.).
• Managing licenses and the international expansion of the Centinela Movement.
• Creating an inclusive innovation and production center in Miami, employing people with disabilities or at risk of social exclusion, replicating the model already established in Spain and Europe.
• Developing strategic partnerships with public institutions, universities, and U.S. technology companies.

In June 2025, Abel Lafuente was officially invited to the Senate of the United Mexican States for the signing and presentation of the Centinela Law, a historic legislative milestone inspired by his efforts to prevent chemical submission (spiking).

🧭Vision
“Technology must protect, not dominate.
True innovation is that which improves people’s lives.”
The Centinela Movement was born from a deeply personal experience lived by Abel Lafuente more than sixteen years ago, when he was the victim of an attempted chemical submission. That event marked the beginning of a mission that, years later, took technological form with the creation of the Centinela Bracelet—a prevention and protection tool that has since grown into a global social movement.
From the start, Centinela has been accompanied by a strong commitment to education and public awareness. Abel and his team have delivered lectures, conferences, and workshops at universities, international forums, and community events, promoting awareness of spiking and the importance of creating conscious and safe environments.
In Mexico, the Centinela Movement reached its greatest public visibility during a macro-conference held at the San Luis Potosí Stadium, where over 20,000 people participated in a day dedicated to prevention, safety, and respect for human rights.
This educational and human approach is now being brought to the United States, aiming to create a real impact among young people, institutions, and communities—encouraging reflection on personal protection, respect, and empathy.
Abel Lafuente seeks to bring to the United States his proven model of inclusive innovation, fostering employment, knowledge transfer, and institutional collaboration. From Aglaya Global LLC (Miami, Florida), his goal is to consolidate an international hub for social and technological security, integrating America, Europe, and Asia under a single purpose: to protect and empower people.
