Adri Ofman
Co-Founder & Chief Operating Officer, FlipaClip

Adri Ofman is the Co-Founder and Chief Operating Officer of FlipaClip, the mobile animation platform that has grown into one of the most celebrated creative apps in the world, recognized as one of the top apps of the year by Google.

Adri's path to FlipaClip was anything but linear. After earning a Media Business degree from Temple University, he launched his career at The Walt Disney Company in Latin America. But when the entertainment world's ceiling came into view, he made a sharp, unlikely pivot: real estate development in Uruguay.

Starting from the ground up, he co-founded GROU (the "O" is for Ofman) and built it into one of Uruguay's most dynamic development companies, leading projects from conception through finished product as Chief Development Officer for over a decade. Adri brought a creative instinct to real estate: shaping the concept, identity, and experience of residential buildings with the same rigor he'd applied to entertainment.

In 2020, he stepped away from GROU with a clear conviction: that creativity and technology were converging in ways the entertainment industry wasn't ready for, and that the opportunity was too big to ignore. He joined forces with the Meson brothers at FlipaClip, bringing the business depth and creative vision needed to transform a beloved product into one of the most exciting startups in the world.

Adri also serves on the Board of Advisors of the Developers Alliance, where he advocates for small app makers and independent developers, and has taken that advocacy all the way to Capitol Hill and the White House, delivering briefings to push for fair and balanced digital policy.
