Carlos de Ory has been building companies since 2013 and is a dad. In 2014 he launched Happy Low Cost, a community that finds cheap flights before they disappear: more than 300,000 flights have been booked through its deals and its communities passed one million followers. He went on to live and build with other founders in New York (StartupsMansion, covered by Antena 3), Berlin, Miami and Bali. In 2022 Forbes España included him in its list of the 100 most creative people in business. Today he lives between Europe and Sumba, where he is building Eco Beach City, a town by the sea with coworking and solar power, and runs AI products such as RealHunt and Jobersity under Equinox Investment Group LLC. He is writing a book, episode by episode, about building companies and a life you choose.
