When colleagues ask why I’ve blocked two months of my calendar for a project still in the land option phase in Southern Spain, my answer is simple: I am coming for the architecture of the model
The decision to cluster the 130 micro-factories into a single district next to the school and entrepreneurship center is planning genius. The community's children will grow up seeing real creation, while the business center serves as the beating heart of the village
My time there won’t be spent lecturing. I will be on the ground inside the studios, solving practical efficiency issues: doubling small-space crop yields, implementing future food tech to extend shelf life, and stabilizing production processes from day one
Since not all 130 micro-businesses will focus on agriculture, with designers and tech creators joining the community, bringing in rotating mentors from diverse fields is critical. This variety ensures we build a living, breathing incubator rather than an "isolated farm"
I am not coming to "save the world," and this isn't about marketing promises...... the wave of 700 organic prospects proves people want this. I am coming because this will be Europe’s first practical laboratory for a micro-economy. It is our chance to design the blueprint for future European communities
My commitment is signed. I look forward to seeing the first tractors on the ground in Jimena
