Gary van Broekhoven

Barcelona Area, Spain
I had my first startup at 14 and have never looked back since. At 16 I studied design, economics and business and 20 plus years later I am still in those fields. I nearly became an anthropologist, a photographer, a ski instructor and an astranout but something in me kept drawing back to exactly what I do now; turning dreams into reality. I've lectured in design at several universities, mentor Startups in product development & UX, and I have been fortunate to have worked in some interesting fields such as toy design…
