IN SHORT

Gina Diez Barroso is all about helping other people achieve their goals. She’s been working at it for a long time. What started as an architecture and interior design firm she founded in 1990 has turned into a full-blown holding company with subsidiaries in multiple sectors, including education. It’s in education where Gina is really making a splash, teaching people to combine their creativity with business through her program in Centro, and also supporting female entrepreneurs across the world with Dalia Empower. “I want to actually give people the ingredients to succeed – not just the recipe.”
