Paul Griebel

Paul Griebel has called Miami home since 2010, relocating from the northeast where he grew up in Connecticut. He spent several years working in economic development at the state and local levels, in positions with Enterprise Florida and the Miami-Dade Beacon Council, respectively. Immediately prior to joining VFA, he served as the Executive Director of the World Strategic Forum.

As VFA’s Director of Miami, Paul is building on his previous experience in economic development to help grow the local ecosystem. He is excited about the tremendous potential of Miami’s entrepreneurial community and solidifying VFA’s vital role in that community’s growth. He views Miami an ideal location for VFA fellows given the city’s energy, openness, and collaborative nature.
