Karlo Tanjuakio is a self-made entrepreneur, mentor, and philanthropist dedicated to empowering everyone through Ethical Efficiency™—which provides the curiosity, courage and compassion to succeed.

Born in the Philippines and raised as a first-generation immigrant in the U.S., he learned the values of humility, honesty, hard work from his father, a U.S. military combat veteran, and his mother, an industrial engineer.

Karlo founded GLSS, an enterprise learning platform that specializes in efficiency training which has helped Fortune 500 companies, government agencies, small businesses and over 3,000 universities streamline operations and drive efficiency.

He also created Kure, an AI-powered efficiency platform that makes efficiency accessible to everyone—regardless of background or experience.

Internationally recognized by Inc. 500 and Forbes, his companies are revolutionizing how businesses and individuals achieve peak performance.

But Karlo’s mission goes beyond business. He is giving back by equipping underserved high school students with real-world problem-solving skills through technology, mentorship, and hands-on learning. His work with high schools ensures that the next generation of ethical, efficient leaders has the tools to succeed—and the inspiration to help others do the same.
