From a very young age, Pep showed great passion for music that led him to study classical music and to learn jazz. He worked with a Grammy Latino awarded band and he also created a musical podcast on his first MacBook. This last project introduced Pep Gomez in the world of technology.
Having delved into the blogging world, Pep became interested on entrepreneurship, and so he launched Iniciador, one of the first events for entrepreneurs in Spain. As young as 15 years old, he started a music market called Redondea, and at age 16 he moved to Silicon Valley to work at Solon Ventures, where he was a capital risk and strategic consultant.
