Jacques-philippe Piverger, cHAIRMAN & founder
Jacques-Philippe is known for his blend of entrepreneurial vision and boundless empathy. As a founder of MPOWERD Inc., Realicity, The Soleil Group and The Council for Urban Professionals, Jacques-Philippe has blurred the line between philanthropist and entrepreneur, generating millions of socially-charged dollars as well as invaluable opportunities to disadvantaged communities around the globe. His influence and social conscience have been repeatedly recognized by The Council on Foreign Relations, The World Economic Forum, and his alma mater, Dartmouth's Tuck School of Business. In addition to his efforts to be an agent of good, Jacques-Philippe also draws on his considerable experience working in the private sector. Most notably as Director at PineBridge Investments, where he oversaw $10 billion of real estate and private equity assets. When the devastating 2010 earthquake rocked Haiti to its core, Jacques-Philippe served as an Advisory Board Member of George Clooney's Hope For Haiti Fund to support the rebuilding effort. Recently appointed to the boards of the New York City Economic Development Corporation's BuildNYC and the Industrial Development Agency, Jacques-Philippe will utilize his past life as a Wall Street financier to spur the creation of jobs, companies and realizations of dreams within the city's borders. Jacques-Philippe has a Bachelor's degree from Georgetown University and an MBA from Dartmouth's Tuck School of Business. Practicing the martial art of Hapkido and meditation allows Jacques-Philippe to maintain a near nirvana state of zen at all times.
