Some stories remind us that purpose-driven entrepreneurship is as much about building as it is about breaking.

In this Inspiration Bite from The Gap in Between 2025, Gloria Gubianas, founder of Hemper, pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to create a company with impact. Recognized as Entrepreneur of the Year and featured in the Nova 111 list, Gloria has become one of the most authentic voices in sustainable business in Spain.

Her talk goes beyond success stories. She shares the ten truths no one tells you about leading with purpose, navigating failure and rebuilding with intention.

If you joined us in Valencia, relive this powerful moment.
If not, here’s your chance to experience it for the first time.

What happens when a Wall Street mindset meets global social need?

That question sparked one of the standout moments of The Gap in Between 2025 and opens our first Inspiration Bite.

In this talk, Arancha Martínez shares the turning point that took her from investment banking to the streets of India, where she uncovered a painful truth: while corporations track every metric with precision, the social sector still lacks the tools to measure the impact that truly matters.

Today, as co-founder and CEO of Comgo, she is using AI and blockchain to close that gap and bring real transparency to the impact ecosystem.

If you were with us in Valencia, relive the moment.
If you couldn’t make it, here’s your front-row seat.

⚡🌍 “There is hope, there is time.”

En The Gap In Between 2025, Javier Peña, fundador de HOPE afirmó que la sostenibilidad ya no basta: la única vía realista es la regeneración.

Vivimos la era de la electricidad, una transformación exponencial que impulsa el abandono de la combustión y permite que hasta un 75 % de la demanda energética global pueda cubrirse con renovables. ⚡

La eficiencia y los paisajes regenerativos son claves: suelos vivos que infiltran agua, capturan carbono y devuelven equilibrio al planeta. 🌱

En la industria agroalimentaria, la resiliencia y la tecnología marcan el camino hacia una producción más eficiente y regenerativa. 🌾

“Estamos en el momento más emocionante de la humanidad:
convirtiendo los grandes problemas en soluciones reales.”

🧠💚 “Si la ecología rigiera la economía, estaríamos mucho más comprometidos con la vida.”

El biólogo Fernando Valladares nos recordó en The Gap in Between 2025 que los mayores riesgos para la economía ya no son financieros, son ecológicos. 🌍

En un escenario donde hemos sobrepasado siete de los nueve límites del planeta, su mensaje fue claro: no hay progreso posible si seguimos compitiendo contra la naturaleza.

💬 “Estamos a tiempo. Si cambiamos la competencia por colaboración y el beneficio individual por el bien común, sobreviviremos.”

Porque el futuro no se construye con más consumo, sino con más consciencia.
Y en The Gap in Between, seguimos conectando a quienes trabajan por una economía que cuida la vida. 🌱

Behind every idea, there’s a person. 💡
Innovation isn’t just a concept: it’s a community. 🌍

At The Gap in Between 2025, we witnessed the human side of innovation: diverse faces, powerful voices, and a shared energy that reminded us why we do what we do.

From Inspiration Bites to spontaneous laughter, from deep reflections to new connections, every moment showed that when people come together with purpose, innovation becomes more than progress, it becomes transformation. ✨

This is what it means to build a community of change, one idea, one story, one bridge at a time. 🤝💙

✨ Bold Ideas, Real Connections: That’s The Gap in Between 2025
