Breaking Bread & Barriers: The Immigrant Entrepreneurship Journey of Paramount Foods’ Mohamad Fakih

Attend a featured fireside chat with Mohamad Fakih, CEO of Paramount Fine Foods, a business leader and humanitarian recognized nationwide for his impact.

Beyond business, Mr. Fakih is a committed philanthropist, UNHCR partner, and national advocate for refugee employment and anti-hate leadership.
