Being an entrepreneur requires many important traits, but none are as crucial as bringing all of who you are the project. According to Jose Corvas, that means fighting for your dreams and throwing yourself into the deep end with joy.

In this episode of the Europreneur Podcast, Jose Corvas discusses how he became an entrepreneur after seeing regular mismanagement and mediocre leadership all around him. Now at the head of a real estate company based in Madrid as well as a professor, Jose has overcome homophobia in a conservative market to achieve the success he shares with his family.

Jose is a member of EO Madrid and managing partner at Aura REE, an independent advisory firm in the real estate industry. His company also owns an independent online news source for the entire real estate industry, building trust in his expertise.
