Daniel Roy Gilchrist Noboa Azín (/noʊˈboʊə/noh-BOH-ə; Spanish pronunciation:[daˈnjelnoˈβo.a]; born 30 November 1987) is an Ecuadorian politician and businessman currently serving as the 48th president of Ecuador since 23 November 2023.[1][2][3] Taking office at the age of 35, he is the second-youngest president in the country's history, after Juan José Flores,[4] and the youngest to be elected.[5][6][7][8]
Noboa was a member of the National Assembly of Ecuador from 2021 until 2023 when the National Assembly was dissolved following the muerte cruzada constitutional mechanism invoked by President Guillermo Lasso. Before his political career, Noboa served in several positions at Noboa Corporation, an exporting business founded by his father Álvaro Noboa, a billionaire who unsuccessfully ran for president of Ecuador five times. He has been widely described as an heir to his father's company and fortune.[9]
In May 2023, Noboa announced his candidacy for president in the 2023 snap election, running on the National Democratic Action ticket. He advanced to the run-off election in October, facing Luisa González, which many interpreted as an upset given his low polling numbers in the days leading up to the election.[10] Noboa went on to win nearly 52% of the vote in the run-off, defeating González on 15 October 2023.[11]
Noboa is currently the youngest democratically elected serving state leader in the world, and the third-youngest head of government after Gabriel Attal of France and Ibrahim Traoré of Burkina Faso.
