Paul Herman
CEO + Founder - HIP Investor Inc
USA

The world's $ 140 trillion in investments are under-performing until all currencies (e.g. rupee, real, rand, euro, yen, dollar) generate both Human Impact + Profit (HIP) simultaneously. Paul founded HIP Investor to spread and implement this vision of a world that is socially, environmentally and financially sustainable. HIP Investor advises corporations and CEOs, entrepreneurs, and individual and institutional investors to realize their potential to be HIP.

Previously, Paul was Director of Strategy for eBay founder Pierre Omidyar's Network to help shape the future of its for-profit and non-profit investments and portfolio impact. Paul's achievements as Chief Development Officer of Ashoka: Innovators for the Public included leading the global team to grow revenue from million to nearly million in two years, and expanding the North America Fellowship program, now numbering 60 systems-changing social entrepreneurs, known as Fellows (one-third of whom are in the San Francisco Bay Area).

Born and raised in Chicago, Paul has become a "citizen of the world" by living and working in North America, Europe, Asia and Australia. Paul is a passionate entrepreneur and has led, managed and grown innovative ideas and organizations from scratch. Paul co-founded and sold a financial-services company for teens, kids and parents, reaching 30,000 customers, 55 business partners, and enabling a living platform for financial literacy and privacy protection.

Paul also has advised Fortune 500 companies world-wide with McKinsey & Company and CSC Index; founded the New York Chapter of Coalition for Quality Children's Media which teaches youth media literacy; serves on the Board of Advisors for Design That Matters, a product-design firm to help low-income citizens globally, and is an Advisor to a global network of HIP-focused professionals and students ( www.NetImpact.org).
