Speaker Bio
Ben Harrison is a social entrepreneur and co-founder & CEO of Jonas Paul Eyewear, a company he launched with his wife, Laura Harrison to help children feel beautiful in their glasses and prevent childhood blindness in the developing world. Inspired by the birth of their son, Jonas, who was born with a rare eye condition and regained low vision after 22 surgeries, Ben and Laura recognized the need for stylish, functional, and affordable eyewear for kids. Discovering a gap in the market, they left their careers behind and launched Jonas Paul Eyewear in 2013, driven by the mission to provide fashionable eyewear for children and support sight-saving initiatives with every purchase."
