Meet Hash Pakbaz, Chief Digital Officer (CDO) at JSR Corporation.

Hash is driven by a passion for learning and creating impactful outcomes by building and leading high performance teams and organisations. And he has taken products from invention to mass production and revenue, both as an intrapreneur and as an entrepreneur.

Chris leads the Diversity & Inclusion groups at eBay UK, an interest in which stemmed from growing up with a strong feeling that he wanted everyone in his life, both personal and work, to feel that they can truly express what is going on inside of them and be in an environment where they feel safe to do this, even if this means having to challenge the current orthodoxy.
