Nacional Monte de Piedad nombra nuevo director en plena huelga
Institución designa a José Antonio Murillo Garza como su nuevo liderazgo para enfrentar el conflicto laboral que existe desde el año pasado.
Por Deyanira Vázquez | Reportera
Nacional Monte de Piedad anunció el nombramiento de José Antonio Murillo Garza como nuevo director general de la institución, cargo que asume a partir de este lunes 1 de junio en medio de un conflicto laboral que afectó la operación de diversas sucursales desde octubre de 2025. La designación fue aprobada por el Patronato de la organización.
La institución informó que el nombramiento respondió a la experiencia profesional acumulada por Murillo Garza en los sectores financiero, académico y tecnológico. El nuevo directivo sustituyó a la administración saliente en un contexto marcado por negociaciones laborales aún abiertas. El anuncio se produjo mientras la organización mantenía esfuerzos para fortalecer su operación institucional.
En su primer posicionamiento público, José Antonio Murillo Garza reconoció los desafíos que enfrentaba la institución. El directivo manifestó respeto por la historia y la misión social de Nacional Monte de Piedad. También expresó disposición para asumir las responsabilidades derivadas del momento que atravesaba la organización.
Contexto de la huelga
La llegada del nuevo director general coincidió con el conflicto laboral que derivó en una huelga iniciada en octubre de 2025. La disputa entre la institución y el sindicato de trabajadores impactó la operación de diversas sucursales en el país. El diferendo permaneció como uno de los principales desafíos administrativos y financieros de la organización.
Durante los últimos meses, las negociaciones laborales ocuparon parte relevante de la agenda institucional. Aunque el comunicado oficial del nombramiento no abordó de manera directa el proceso de diálogo con el sindicato, la designación ocurrió mientras las conversaciones continuaban. La situación mantuvo atención entre trabajadores, usuarios y sectores vinculados al financiamiento social.
Nacional Monte de Piedad opera como una institución dedicada al préstamo prendario y al apoyo financiero de millones de personas. La organización ha mantenido presencia histórica en el país mediante servicios orientados a quienes requieren liquidez inmediata. Su actividad forma parte del sistema de asistencia privada con mayor tradición en México.
Trayectoria profesional
José Antonio Murillo Garza es doctor en Economía por Rice University y desarrolló una trayectoria profesional en ámbitos académicos, financieros y tecnológicos. Su experiencia incluyó investigación, docencia y responsabilidades directivas. El perfil fue considerado por el Patronato para encabezar una nueva etapa institucional.
A lo largo de su carrera participó como profesor e investigador en instituciones como El Colegio de México, el Instituto Tecnológico Autónomo de México (ITAM) y Rice University. Su actividad académica se concentró en temas económicos y financieros. También colaboró en proyectos relacionados con análisis económico y políticas públicas.
En el sector público ocupó diversas responsabilidades dentro del Banco de México (Banxico). Durante esa etapa participó en proyectos vinculados con innovación institucional, sistema financiero y análisis macroeconómico. Su labor estuvo relacionada con herramientas utilizadas para la toma de decisiones en materia monetaria.
Experiencia y objetivos
Posteriormente desarrolló actividades en Grupo Financiero Banorte, donde fortaleció su experiencia en el sector financiero privado. Más adelante asumió la dirección general de RappiCard, empresa especializada en servicios financieros digitales. Esa experiencia formó parte de los elementos valorados durante el proceso de selección.
El Patronato informó que la capacidad de liderazgo, transformación financiera, innovación tecnológica y visión estratégica fueron factores determinantes para el nombramiento. Carlos Zozaya, presidente del Patronato, señaló que el nuevo director cuenta con habilidades técnicas y conocimiento sobre el impacto social de la institución. La declaración fue difundida junto con el anuncio oficial. –sn–

Edison wyprzedził Noblistów o 130 lat? W jego żarówkach powstawał grafen, ale nikt go nie widział
Grafen. Supermateriał XXI wieku, za którego odkrycie przyznano Nagrodę Nobla w 2010 roku. Jest w prototypach baterii, filtrach i marzeniach o futurystycznej elektronice. Okazuje się, że Thomas Edison produkował go seryjnie już w 1879 roku. Tylko o tym nie wiedział.
Eksperyment z przeszłości
Naukowcy z Rice University postanowili zabawić się w „archeologów chemii”. Zamiast wymyślać nowe metody syntezy, sięgnęli po patent Thomasa Edisona numer 223898 z 1880 roku. Edison, szukając idealnego materiału na żarnik do swojej żarówki, eksperymentował ze wszystkim – od tektury po… bambus. I to właśnie zwęglony bambus okazał się strzałem w dziesiątkę, świecąc przez ponad 1200 godzin.
Lucas Eddy, doktorant z Rice, odtworzył ten proces w laboratorium. Kupił rzemieślnicze żarówki z bambusowym włóknem (tak, można takie dostać w Nowym Jorku) i potraktował je prądem, dokładnie tak jak robił to słynny wynalazca.
Srebrzysty ślad
Metoda, którą nieświadomie stosował Edison, to dziś tzw. „flash Joule heating”. Polega ona na błyskawicznym (rzędu kilkunastu sekund) podgrzaniu węgla do temperatury 3000 stopni Celsjusza.
Gdy Eddy spojrzał na wynik pod nowoczesnym mikroskopem elektronowym, zobaczył coś niezwykłego. Zwęglony bambus nie był tylko czarnym węglem. Miejscami pokrywał go „lustrzany, srebrzysty nalot”. Analiza spektroskopowa potwierdziła: to grafen turbostratyczny.
Dlaczego Edison przegapił Nobla?
Odpowiedź jest prosta: brak narzędzi. Grafen to warstwa węgla o grubości jednego atomu. W 1879 roku nikt nie dysponował mikroskopem, który pozwoliłby go dostrzec. Zresztą nie był też Nagród Nobla, Alfred Nobel swój testament spisał w 1895 roku, a pierwsze Noble trafiły do laureatów w 1901 roku. Wracając do Edisona, dla niego był to po prostu „efekt uboczny” procesu zwęglania. Co więcej, gdyby te żarówki świeciły dłużej, grafen i tak zamieniłby się z powrotem w zwykły grafit, bo w wysokiej temperaturze i przy długiej pracy warstwy węgla zaczynają się ponownie układać w strukturę objętościową.
Wnioski na przyszłość
Odkrycie z Rice University to coś więcej niż ciekawostka historyczna. Pokazuje, że w starych technologiach – lampach łukowych, pierwszych lampach rentgenowskich czy telegrafach – mogą kryć się odpowiedzi na współczesne problemy inżynierii materiałowej. Czasem wystarczy po prostu spojrzeć na stare patenty przez nowe mikroskopy.
