Over the course of his career, Ultimate Creative Director and Entrepreneur, Javier Laval has collaborated with companies and artists such as Nike, Pony, Kanye West, Jay Z, and Usher. In this episode, Aalia learns that it was observing discrimination that led him to curate events that were more accepting and eventually, in 2008, launching one of the first men’s luxury footwear brands called, Android Homme. In 2020, when COVID19 affected people in the events space and music world, he was inspired to pivot, creating a monetization livestream platform that brings music artists and creatives straight into living rooms with the recently launched, FUTURESTREAM. Discussing the influence of Javier's Puerto Rican roots, they talk about views on racism, activism, and his personal experiences and hopes as a father of two. You won’t want to miss this conversation between them, who have a nearly 20-year friendship, on the dream and reality of building empires and how the hustle is definitely sold separately.
