Toni Segarra is one of Spain’s most celebrated advertising executives. Spearheading campaigns for top brands like BMW and Ikea, he’s taken home dozens of major prizes at festivals in Cannes and San Sebastian and was named one of the 25 most influential people in Spain by Forbes. He also happens to be the architect of SNGULAR’s fresh brand update.

 

Here, Calderón chats with Segarra about talent, creativity and what all great teams have in common.

 

 

For the second episode of UNIQ, Jose Manuel Calderón sat down with Spanish virologist and immunologist Dr. Margarita Del Val. She has a Ph.D. in chemistry with a major in biochemistry and molecular biology. Her main area of expertise is the study of the immune response to viral infections and she is the coordinator of the Spanish National Research Council’s Interdisciplinary Platform in Global Health. 

 

In the this episode of UNIQ, Private conversations, we invited none other than José Andrés, the Spanish chef and philanthropist, to our table. He is one of the most esteemed and admired chefs of our day and an exceedingly generous person who helps those most in need. Within the last year alone, his charitable work has earned him both the Princess of Asturias Award for Concord and a staggering $100 million cash grant from Jeff Bezos.

 

José Andrés has become a model chef and restaurateur, but his path to success was not always easy. He had the dream to travel the world and began his journey in the United States with just $50 in his pocket. From those humble beginnings, he has gone on to found the Think Food Group, a company that’s launched 20 restaurants across the US and popularized the concept of tapas and shared food across the US.

 

We had the pleasure of speaking to one of the most renowned figures in Spain’s media landscape. Ana Pastor, born in Madrid, has drawn on her passion, dedication and conviction to become the host of leading news programs, electoral debates, and create the country’s first fact-checking platform.
