Hi! My name is Karla, I am Mechatronics Engineer studying for a second Bachelor's in Economics and a Master's in Energy. Since I was studying in university I realized the importance of implementing sustainable development in our current society and the immediate urgency to work for fulfilling the Paris Agreement. Therefore, I created a youtube channel focus on sustainable teaching as well as working for the energy transition to renewables systems and the boost of doughnut economics.

Madrid, Comunidad de Madrid, España

I'm a father of 3 working in the different Digital waves as a Design Strategist, Technologist and Change Agent for big companies and startups for more than 25 years. I've been working in Fjord, Accenture, World Economic Forum and I'm a Fellow of Aspen Institute. I have built teams, companies and I share my experience mentoring executives and in talks, business schools and creative communities. I could say I have been successful in changing the mindset of many people in companies, but in the end, when it comes to business, everything is about growth so I believe that the way many businesses talk about Sustainability is a placebo to free people from guilt and keep business as usual. We need humility, generosity, imagination and experienced people to make change real. In my position as a creative person surrounded by students and senior people, I feel I have a privileged view to learn from different worldviews mixing the future and the experience and connect them.
