I'm Gabo.
My journey started in finance—I studied it in college and landed a job at Morgan Stanley right after graduation. But wait! Before that, I worked for a small food company in Chicago, selling Jamón and Chorizo. That’s when I had my first real entrepreneurial spark—I knew I wanted to build something of my own.
After some time at Morgan Stanley and Oquendo, a small M&A boutique, I found my first venture: Nexer Renovables, a solar energy company. It was a success by Spanish standards, and I loved the industry. However, it was too dependent on subsidies then, so I pivoted to a different sector with a similar impact—sustainable mobility. That’s when I launched Bluemove, one of Spain’s first car-sharing companies.
In 2016, Europcar acquired Bluemove, and I helped shape the company's new mobility and technology division.
Now, I’m working on something more significant. I want to make the web where human consciousness exists—free from centralized servers. Everything started here: As We May Think
And this is the best implementation I have seen of those fundamental ideas:

Clear and readable summary of the rest of the field; then he goes on to advocate “procognitive systems,” systems that will digest what’s known in any field and talk back to you, using techniques of artificial intelligence.
Whatever its other merits, this book is great for shaking people up, especially librarians. It seems so official.
