Paris Hilton

Entrepeneur, DJ & Activist

One of today’s most recognisable entrepreneurs and international influencers, Paris Hilton is a pioneer in reality television and an innovator in social media and celebrity branding. Since starring in “The Simple Life,” Hilton has built a global empire. In 2006, she created Paris Hilton Entertainment, a multi-billion-dollar company which has surpassed over $4 billion in revenue. In 2001, Variety declared Paris as a “Billion Dollar Entrepreneur”, and she has launched 27 fragrances globally and won numerous accolades. She recently debuted “This Is Paris,” her critically acclaimed YouTube Originals documentary on her life. This follows her success as a businesswoman, but takes an unexpected turn as she reveals, for the first time, the abuses she suffered as a teenager at schools in the Troubled Teen Industry. Since it debuted, Paris has used her platform to support Breaking Code Silence, the organization created to affect change in the industry, and eradicate the abuse of children in systemically abusive institutions. Recently, she was accepted to RISE Justice Labs, the world’s first civil rights accelerator to continue her advocacy work around the Troubled Teen Industry. Always attuned to emerging trends and opportunities, Hilton continues to expand Paris Hilton Entertainment into a leading global integrated media and product company, leveraging digital, audio, television, and social, while using her platform to inspire, empower and create lasting positive impact. As an investor, Hilton is committed to supporting and investing in the next generation of entrepreneurs positively impacting the world. Philanthropy is an important part of Hilton’s life and she frequently works with the Children’s Hospital in LA, as well as various orphanages and hospitals overseas. She has been passionately involved with numerous philanthropic organizations, most recently The Sasha Project LA.
