The project has reached over 150m people organically, saved 625 species and changed the narrative in environmentalism.
Paul is a founding partner and Chief Creative Officer for Rewired Earth – a project harnessing the U.N. Sustainable Development Goals to create a global language by which they measure the impact businesses have, and conversely, how the wider public inform businesses about what they care about most. The project seeks to take $35tn and place it in planetary positive projects and includes partners such as Microsoft, PwC, Kantar etc.
As one of the founding team behind BAFTA Albert, Paul and Richard Smith helped transition Albert from a BBC production tool into an industry wider carbon calculator for the broadcasting industry. Now used by hundreds of productions from Netflix, NBC Universal, Warner Bros, BBC, Channel 4 and hundreds more across the planet, saving thousands of tonnes of carbon every minute.
Paul founded multi award-wining digital agency Aerian Studios (now Aer Studios) at the age of 17 years old, transforming it into one of the most celebrated companies in the industry, and at its height being responsible for over 2% of internet traffic through the website, services, apps and games they made. Paul crafted key partnerships and projects with Red Bull, Warner Bros, CNN, BBC, Cartoon Network and UK Gov amongst many others.
