Reza Riezouw

Reza Riezouw is the author of The Art of Creative Altruism and founder of Altruia. Born in Iran to a Persian mother and Dutch father, and educated in Europe, his professional life has spanned art and culture, media, entrepreneurship, family-office advisory, technology leadership and strategic brand development. Alongside this work, he has maintained a lifelong contemplative practice and cross-cultural engagement with philosophical and spiritual traditions. His writing brings lived experience and reflective inquiry together to explore creativity, care and cooperation as practical foundations for meaningful work, responsible innovation and cultural evolution. Rather than presenting a doctrine, he offers Creative Altruism as an open, applied contemporary philosophy and continues to develop the field through writing and the Altruia ecosystem. He lives in Porto, Portugal.
