Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPaul Horner is a finance and GovTech leader with over a decade of experience building mission-driven platforms for consular services and a long diplomatic-focused career background. As CFO of Ice Cool and former Director of DiGiConsul, he co-created Journey, an AI-enhanced eGovernment platform that helps consular officers make evidence-based decisions, track KPIs, and improve diaspora emergency response. His early banking leadership at Riggs Bank Europe serving diplomats across Washington, London, and Berlin provided the domain insight and entrepreneurial foundation that launched his GovTech work. Paul combines strategic financial stewardship with product-minded operations, translating complex stakeholder needs—security, tourism, cost efficiency—into practical, auditable systems. He holds an MBA from Bayes Business School and a multilingual, multinational perspective rooted in European studies and economics. Less obvious: his CSR-driven diaspora engagement module reflects a consistent focus on using commercial tech to accelerate public-sector humanitarian outcomes.
