From Mexico, please meet Gustavo Morales.


Gustavo Morales is an international business graduate, specialized in international finance and economy. He also studied development economy and north-south relations and one could say that he holds a very firm grasp on the way our financial system works. However, he's not overly fond of that system. In fact, he's not d'accord with it at all. That's why he wants to change it. Gustavo strongly believes we find ourselves in an age that longs for change and innovation, the new generation demands it. Therein lies the opportunity to arise from conformity and "one-size-fits-all" paradigms, in the digital age information can be found almost anywhere and this can be used to our advantage. The modern human being is a source of creation, of constant change. This is where his real passions are: he's a dedicated world traveler and an avid student of the mind, he loves all that is new, the unexplainable; the forces of human creation, like music and architecture. Dwelling outside the confines of all that we know, living far from comfort zones so we can create new questions that need answering.


What he's most thrilled about in the Palomar5 camp is meeting with like-minds from different parts of the globe. During the past three years he found out for himself what it's all about, because it was and still is in those talks where revolutionary thinking is not only encouraged, but needed. Being with people that hail from different cultures, upbringings and mindsets requires you to think outside the box, to question your own beliefs and paradigms. The opportunity of bringing together 30 such forward-thinking minds is golden, being a part of it is priceless.


For him, one of the main opportunity areas for change is the robotic existence in which most of current-day work environments put people into. Gustavo thinks we need to address digital-age solutions and technological advantages, along with more abstract but equally important concepts such as individuality, human emotion and self-expression. Work is necessary and it's a very good thing, making it feel that way for everyone is a start towards real, world-scale change.
