Lawrence Greaves is both an entrepreneur and investor, as well as a board advisor. Prior to being an entrepreneur he had roles in boutique advisory firms and large national consulting firms, advising on a number of large international M&A transactions.
Lawrence invested in and co-founded OPKIX in 2016. He is the CEO and on the Board today. OPKIX makes the smartest, smallest, simplest, and most powerful little cameras and camera accessories, and as Lawrence described it, it's changing consumer habits for capturing life's moments by allowing people to be in those moments (and not looking at them through their phones).
Prior to OPKIX, he co-founded a company in 2008 and then went on to sell his 50% share of the company about 10 years later. It was a leading provider of contract CFOs and other technical finance and accounting professionals and they opened offices all across the U.S.
Lawrence is also passionate about philanthropy as well as investing in other businesses. We covered some of those projects and initiatives as well.
OPKIX recently won a prestigious OCTANe High Tech Award for Best Technology Innovation in a Consumer Product, and he's committed to building the company and making the products here in Orange County. He's a great cheerleader for all the great things happening and people making it happen here in our backyard.
