ABOUT

Now:

  • Director of Education at ProfessionalArtist.com (Global)
  • Ex-Partnerships for Google’s Arts & Culture & Startups Team (Japan)
  • Writing & Meditating

If you knew me in person you would know:

  • I love cultivating wisdom. I daily meditate, read, ponder & write.
  • I am a minimalist. Frequent travel led me to appreciate the art of living light.
  • I am quite a nomad. I don´t know where or when I will settle.
  • I love beauty. It makes me go quiet inside and lifts my spirit.
  • Some words I resonate with: Freedom, Silence, Simple.

Miguel Mayher likes to contemplate & create. At Google, he strikes partnerships (Arts & Culture & Startups teams) and teaches mindfulness around the world through their flagship program Search Inside Yourself. Outside Google he leads the growth of ProfessionalArtist.com’s faculty and student body, which has already helped thousands of artists level up their career through its online trainings over the last few years.

He is a Global Economic Symposium Young Fellow and One Young World ambassador.

He treasures informal self-education: devouring books, surrounding himself with remarkable people and experimenting.

Formally, he graduated in Computer Engineering at Universidad Autonoma de Madrid, majoring in Information Systems Applied to Busines Management at Paris Dauphine University. He obtained his postgraduate in Fine Arts (oil-painting) at London’s Central Saint Martins.

After his first start-up, he entered General Electric’s Information Management Leadership Program. Two years later he became IT leader Europe, Middle East & Africa of their Repair Solutions branch in Healthcare. He quit his corporate career to pursue several Internet entrepreneurial businesses, and in 2013 undertook an MBA at INSEAD- The Business School for the World in Singapore.

You will usually find him cafe hopping with his (note)books, carefully looking at the sky, or about to board an airplane.
