About Adrian Avendano
Author of Attention OS | Entrepreneur, connector, programmer, and tech journalist with 15+ years across global tech ecosystems.I’ve been building at the intersection of technology, culture, and human connection since I was 19. Over the past decade and a half, I’ve founded 5 tech companies, and lived and traveled across 90 countries—gaining a front-row view into how societies adopt technology and how people form networks.In 2014, I launched PeopleHunt, a global app for making meaningful connections in new cities. It was recognized by MacWorld as one of the top 5 apps worldwide for meeting people and received funding from Enterprise Ireland and StartupChile.My work has been shaped by long stretches living and building in Mexico, Ireland, Santiago, Warsaw, Eindhoven, Berlin, London, Manila, Yangon, Seoul, Bangkok, San Francisco, Ho Chi Minh City, Taipei, Hanoi, Tbilisi, Yerevan, Izmir, Tirana, Belgrade, Pakistan, Nepal, Denmark, and more. This global lens helps me understand how technology collides with economics, politics, creativity, and community.I founded Global South Tech, a community active in 45 cities with 135+ gatherings, and created Bridging Edges, a series of interviews with 65+ tech leaders exploring anomalies, blind spots, and opportunities shaping humanity’s relationship with technology.Instagram:
