Jose Plaza Carreras
Since I was a child, I’ve always been a curious and driven person. At 17, I co-founded a clothing brand with my twin brother. What began as a fun project quickly grew into a business selling over 6,000 garments annually. While managing the brand, I pursued a degree in Aerospace Engineering at the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid. After completing my bachelor’s and an internship researching fluid behavior in microgravity, I realized that the traditional engineering path wasn’t for me, and that fully dedicating myself to the clothing brand wouldn’t fulfill me either. Wanting to broaden my knowledge in business and management, I joined the Master in Management at HEC Paris, where I’ve just finished my first year. I'm genuinely happy with the decision I made and the path I’m on. I truly believe we’re not here just to serve ourselves, but to contribute to something greater, to make a difference and leave a meaningful mark. That’s why I’m eager to put all my knowledge, experience, and energy toward that goal.
