About Hernan Lopez
My career probably doesn’t make sense on paper.I started as a corporate lawyer in Argentina. Then moved to New York to study environmental law. That led to working on global climate and sustainability frameworks with the UN and the World Bank.At some point I realized something:If I wanted to help solve large global problems, I needed to understand the financial system behind them.So I went back to Columbia and pivoted into capital markets — working across Nasdaq, BNY Mellon, and J.P. Morgan.After 25 years in traditional career paths, I made a deliberate decision: bet on myself.Over the past few years I’ve co-founded a sustainability and climate advisory practice in Latin America focused on high-integrity carbon markets, climate risk, and blended finance solutions that turn adaptation projects into bankable assets.Now I’m building something completely different.I’m co-founding what we believe will be the world’s first fully AI-powered luxury fragrance brand — combining bioengineered ingredients, linguistic intelligence, and data-driven creativity to reimagine scent as personal and cultural expression.I lead business development and sustainability.Based in New York.Multilingual: English, Spanish, Portuguese.Always open to connecting with founders, investors, and builders who believe purpose and performance belong in the same sentence.
