Luis de Val was the guest at the #DinarsdeFutur for the month of May. The founder of the YouPlanet agency accompanied and talked to more than forty AIJEC partners about his entrepreneurial journey and the history of his personal project.
Listening to Luis de Val, it became clear that his entrepreneurial DNA is undeniable, as he asserts that he is an entrepreneur because he has experienced it at home with his father. It was precisely when he named the figure of his progenitor and his beginnings next to him, that he became emotional.
De Val related that at only twenty-five years old he became the youngest film producer in Spain and confessed that, at that time, he believed himself invincible and everything was possible for him until the crisis of 2010 it took everything from him. But in those dark moments, his children and the responsibility he had with them, served as a beacon to find a way out. In 2014 he again bet on cinema, which is the passion of his life and from which it is impossible for him to escape and bought a French film which he sold thanks to a tweet, his ingenuity and the community of the youtuber AuronPlay. With whom, from that moment until now, they walk together.
Luis de Val concluded that his entrepreneurial journey has not been perfect, but it has been linked to his life and business motto: “pursue dreams and be guided by passions”. This has probably been the key to the indisputable success of YouPlanet, the first influencer agency in the country and which already has 9 Oscars.
