FORBES has spotlighted two remarkable talents from Murcia in its prestigious ’30 Under 30′ list, celebrating young leaders across various fields. Tennis star Carlos Alcaraz and tech innovator Roberto Lifante are recognised for their exceptional achievements and impact.
At just 21, Carlos Alcaraz has already made headlines globally. The El Palmar native clinched a silver medal at the Paris Olympics and remains the reigning champion of Wimbledon and Roland Garros. Beyond his athletic achievements, Alcaraz, ranked third in the ATP, is a prominent face for luxury brands like Rolex and Louis Vuitton, and sports giants such as Nike. He has also ventured into real estate with the establishment of Garfia Properties SL.
Roberto Lifante, 25, hails from Barinas and has made waves in the tech sector as the founder and CEO of TK Analytics Group. His work includes software development, agricultural digitalisation, cybersecurity, and 3D printing through his company Tecnologyk 3D.
Also on the list is Georgina Rodríguez, the social media influencer with over 60 million followers, and Anas Andaloussi, a 19-year-old tech entrepreneur from the Canary Islands.
