Pau Garcia-Milà
Pujol, innovative digital world
I have 23 years.
Olesa was born in Montserrat and live in Barcelona. I entrepreneur-entrepreneur-talker: I created an operating system.
live with my hamster, Walter.
God? I would come to believe.
Q
hat invented?
An operating system from the web: information can be stored in a place where access from any terminal connected Internet.
Is what they call "cloud computing" ( cloud computing)? I vote, but politicians do not lead us out of the crisis: that is our business.

not have a name or knew what it would when he invented. Many would say, "What nonsense, this is useless." Who invented it? Cercós My friend Marc and I ... Thanks to the slope of a street Olesa!
Any pending? Our houses are separated by a very steep hill, the street tennis. Stayed at home one or the other to compute, and sometimes forgot the other files at home: to save the happy hill walking, we devised this system.
USB memory had it not powerful?
No, it was in 2005, turned a disadvantage into an advantage. "This is not market," he said. There was no iPhone, iPad, a tablet, the existing plethora of internet terminals: the market has reached us later!
What is the lesson?
see that we had 1% of something, but think big and tip: if that was useful for us, it would be a day for most people. Initially, eyeOS users (so baptized, my mother's idea) we were five people ... Today we are millions!
have to congratulate him.
many times we hear it's "you're naive!" Alive as ingenuously pushes you.
Have to do with age?
Very young or very old is advantageous: attention and have little to lose. I appreciate the failure and refusal to postpone.
Do you see the failure?
tenfold understand that failure is to learn what Ten things I should not repeat.
postpone many, right?
say: "I will do this, do that, but after college, after the mortgage, after the children when I retire ...". Do it now, this afternoon may atropellarte a truck! We live waiting for: it is a mistake.
Can not wait to finish school?
He was in his first of Engineering ... And I drove. I failed the exam because he was too passionate about building eyeOS ...
How many countries does now?
Used in 65 countries: the free software project created in Spain's largest.
Would it have been better from another country?
That's a topic. I say that I benefit from working in Barcelona, \u200b\u200bbecause foreigners find it very glamorous! I'm comfortable here, no need to leave: a meeting in New York is just eight hours.
What is the hardest thing about working here?
looking for excuses not to do new things. If you plan to do something new, you say: "This will not work, do not try!". If you do not work: "I told you so!" And if it works, they say, "You were lucky."
to discourage all, eh?
Elsewhere, if you fail is considered to have accumulated experience, and if you will conquer hailed as a hero.
better model, right? Yes
Our biggest problem is the attitude of the people. We see the entrepreneur as a rogue, and if successful, as an operator.
How do you like being you?
As someone who makes things ... Although not superdotado, ni rico, ni estadounidense.
Algo tendrá.
¡Muchas ganas!
Algo más.
La convicción de que todo iría bien.
¿Algo más?
Ingenuidad.
¿Y algo de dinero?
Pedimos un crédito de 40.000 euros a La Caixa: teníamos 19 años, confiábamos en nosotros y nos lo dieron, avalando nosotros.
¿Ha detectado envidias en alguien?
En los they say "some have had plug" is unfair, it bothers me. What I have to hear now is: "Watch, do not go to die of success!", Ha, ha, ha ... What obsession! I still think, as always, everything will be fine.
What aspects would you improve our education system?
should be linked more theory and practice, and involve those experienced in real life.
I have compared with Zuckerberg, the creator of Facebook ...
Tambiénme have called "the Bill Gates Catalan." I do not like, if not superior, say I'm a failure. I prefer the day when they say to other young "is the Pau Garcia-Milà" U.S. and Swedish o. ..
What advice would you give the Prime Minister English or Catalan?
First, do not take advice from guys of 23 years! Second, forward the message that politicians do not lead us out of the crisis. Because we will draw us together, with a positive attitude. And the work of politicians, immediately afterwards, will make investors understand that this country is not removed.
What advice would you give a youth?
courage, believe in yourself, invent something useful for you to see! And do not dress at all, be yourself. I always go with my jeans and sneakers, even when I give a speech to the Prince!
What with Prince?
first thing I said was: "Speak to me in Catalan." I thanked him. And he promised: "If one day write a book, I preface." And so it proved.
Everything to do
Speak quickly, almost tripping over, but he understands everything. His ideas are clear and precise, and seems to know what they want and what to do at all times. Prince Philip has been honored with the Company Boosts 2010, and Felipe González has applauded, one and a prologue and epilogue his book 'It's all done' (Platform), which sums up his philosophy, full of enthusiasm summarized in the subtitle: "When the world caves in, become an entrepreneur." It is not a pose: Pau comes out through the pores of self-confidence and passion proactive. His innovations are anticipated to cloud computing and today his company (eyeOS) negotiates with the world's first digital. Make things.
