Tomás Uribe: Creativity as the Next Frontier for Global Wealth The Creatr Podcast

Tomás Uribe is a Colombian multi-disciplinary creative and self-made entrepreneur with a unique understanding of the Music and Technology Industries. Thanks to his musical background as an electric bass player, music producer, and composer, plus his relentless curiosity, he has had the chance to learn from the challenges that professionals deal with in the Music Business, while developing tools to counteract its flaws.
Tomás is the CEO and Co-Founder of Stereotheque; the market-network that connects young creatives with different opportunities in music, media, and entertainment. With Stereotheque, Uribe is helping to foster music scenes by tackling the shortage of tools and Business resources available to create sustainable creative careers. 
Thanks to the company's adaptiveness and Tomás' forward-thinking, Stereotheque has maintained operations during the worldwide quarantine, and the company has been able to assist music scenes and creatives worldwide. Tools like CovidAid, and social campaigns like ¡Cantemos Colombia!, have helped to find and raise funds for artists and essential workers in these times of crisis and uncertainty.
In this episode, Tomas shares the story of Stereotheque, how the company evolved, and where it is headed. Learn how to build and develop a startup business in the digital age with creator tools and adapt work routines while executing business strategies. Understand why Creativity is still an asset in today's technological world. And, also hear from Uribe's thoughts and experiences of incorporating and running a company while at the same time changing immigration statuses in the United States.
