Virginia Business //September 1, 2025//
A native of Argentina, Segura is the billionaire chairman of ENSE Group, a holding company for multiple subsidiaries that mainly perform work for foreign governments.
A resident of McLean, Segura maintains leadership roles at ENSE’s companies, including Securiport, which designs airport security systems; Harbass, which advises foreign governments on debt renegotiation; and Alex Stewart International, an assayer of metals and minerals and an operational auditor of mines and petroleum operations.
Segura, who has an economics doctorate and an MBA, previously was a World Bank and Inter-American Development Bank official before entering the private sector, where he made his fortune. He also served in several diplomatic assignments beginning in the 1990s.
Known for his philanthropic support of Catholic and Hispanic causes and civic engagement, Segura founded and chairs both The Trust for the Americas and the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History board. He also is a member of the Dean’s Executive Board for Harvard Kennedy School.
Segura’s son, Juan Pablo Segura, is the state’s commerce and trade secretary. In 2023, Securiport donated $1 million to the Renew Virginia PAC ahead of the younger Segura’s unsuccessful GOP run for the state Senate.
