Jay Harman's Bio
As a naturalist, inventor, and entrepreneur, Jay Harman has taken a hands-on approach to his lifelong fascination with nature's fluid systems. In the process, he has grown successful biomimicry companies that design innovative products, ranging from prize-winning watercraft, to a non-invasive technology for measuring blood glucose, to his most recent companies, PAX Scientific and its subsidiaries. As well as his roles as CEO of PAX Scientific, Inc. and Chairman of the Board for PAX’s subsidiaries companies, Jay is an adjunct professor at Curtin University of Australia and acts as an Invention Ambassador for the AAAS and Lemelson Foundation. He shares his experience and adventures in the natural world and the corporate jungle in his book, The Shark’s Paintbrush, with all proceeds supporting biomimicry education. Jay was featured in Prince Charles’ documentary, Harmony, and book of the same title, as well as Elemental, an award-winning documentary profiling three environmental activists around the world.
