Last Thursday, June 11th, we held another YEC Barcelona Afterwork with Josep Dosta, founder of Woodys, a brand that has transformed the eyewear industry through innovation and sustainable design. During the event, Josep shared how he identified a business opportunity from a personal need and decided to take the leap despite having limited experience and resources. He also emphasized the importance of honesty and transparency, both in business and professional relationships, and highlighted that aspiring entrepreneurs do not need to have all the answers from the start, as much of the learning comes through the journey itself. We would like to thank Josep Dosta for his openness and inspiring perspective in an afterwork that focused on the value of taking risks, learning from every stage of the entrepreneurial journey, and building strong projects based on authenticity, perseverance, and self-confidence.
