DENVER, CO – As a socially responsible holding company working with profitable entities demonstrating measurable positive impact, CoPeace has hired Hanan Levin as a Chief Financial Officer (CFO).
Mr. Levin received his undergraduate degree from Yale University and his MBA from University of North Carolina, Kenan-Flagler Business School. As a business professional, Hanan has served as Director of Capital Markets at Bank of the West overseeing and managing the business development of capital markets and fixed income investment throughout the rocky mountain and midwest regions. In addition, he has provided investment advice and added value to institutional clients, municipalities, and corporations utilizing extensive fixed income market knowledge and experience.
Hanan also founded Advanced Sustainable Technologies in Israel that utilizes proven plasma technology and operates a turnkey, scalable plasma waste management facility for corporate clients and governments.
“I was passionate in establishing a sustainable, yet profitable company with AST,” Levin said. “In keeping with that model, I saw great opportunity and good synergy with CoPeace because they listen to the needs of the world and invest in people and companies with great ideas. Together, we can help those companies achieve strong financial returns while enacting profitable returns for investors.”
Attracting impact synergy between sustainability companies that share common resources is just one of the opportunities Hanan will be working on. As a holding company, CoPeace has the flexibility to represent multiple companies working together as an investment strategy to not only grow those companies, but to create a positive return that has both social and environmental impact. CoPeace is unique in that capacity by taking a different angle from the typical venture capital model of looking only at individual companies for the next unicorn.
“We are extremely excited that Hanan is joining our team,” said founder and CEO, Dr. Craig Jonas. “We’ve received a lot of positive feedback from the financial community by adding his deep, diverse skillset that will help us move to the next level. Hanan will lead the team to make sure the MATH supports our decisions and the mission.”
Socially responsible investment, or impact investing is a growing segment of the finance industry as investors address the importance of longer horizons and acknowledge the responsibility the business community has to a global society. Through financial backing, CoPeace supports a responsible free market in a way that makes the world a more inclusive, peaceful place for future generations.
