Jessica Lauretti

Shifting from In-House to Entrepreneur

I started my career in DIY music scenes because I was obsessed with creative communities, and working with artists to build things from the ground up. That instinct has shaped everything I've done since. Today I work with founders and leadership teams as a growth executive and advisor, helping them build brands, ventures, and institutions that earn real trust and real momentum. My approach is relationship-first — I believe the strongest businesses are built through community and reputation, not just campaigns and conversion funnels. I wrote Work Friends to put that system into a framework others can use. And I co-founded Friend of a Friend as a professional community for women in the UK & EU who are growing their careers and businesses. Some things I've built along the way: - I scaled The Anthem Awards into the world's largest purpose-driven awards platform. - I led the transformation of RYOT into Verizon Media's global creative studio. - I launched the Emerge Accelerator with SoftBank Vision Fund and WeWork Labs. My work has been featured by CNN, The New York Times, and the United Nations. I'm based in Madrid and work globally.
