Victor Perez
Víctor Pérez is the co-founder and CEO of Krea.ai, a San Francisco-based generative AI platform that has raised $83 million and grown to 20 million users. A Barcelona native who studied audiovisual systems engineering at UPF, Perez received the prestigious laCaixa Fellowship (a scholarship from the King of Spain) to pursue graduate studies at Cornell University — but spent just one day on campus before convincing his co-founder Diego Rodriguez to drop out and build Krea instead. A researcher whose work has appeared at NeurIPS and ICCV, and a graffiti artist at heart, Perez leads a company whose mission is to put creators in control of AI — not replace them with it.
