Outgoing Co-CEOs Saskia van der Mast and Hayo Afman have been pivotal in advancing impact investment in East Africa

Coen Boevé to take over as interim CEO

DOB Equity, a family-backed impact investment fund committed to fostering positive social and environmental change across East Africa, announces a significant change in its senior leadership.

After a tenure spanning 19 and 9 years, respectively, Co-CEOs Saskia van der Mast and Hayo Afman will be stepping down from their roles, marking the conclusion of a transformative era for the organization.

The fund will also commence the search for a new  CEO to lead its next phase of growth. In the interim, Coen Boevé, CFO of DOB Equity, will assume the role of interim CEO.

During their tenure, Saskia and Hayo have been instrumental in driving the growth and success of DOB Equity and shaping the landscape of impact investment in East Africa.

They have grown the portfolio from the first investment in 2007 to over 30 impactful companies to date, winning multiple awards, amongst others, for best Impact Investment Firm by the East Africa Venture Capital and Private Equity Association.

With successful exits in companies such as M-Kopa, Bridge International Academies, and Twiga Foods, they have demonstrated that impact investments in Africa can yield both strong social and financial returns.

Saskia highlights: “For example, we were the first investors in M-Kopa on their proposition to sell solar home systems on an affordable payment plan. A decade later the company has avoided 2.2m tons of carbon, issued over $1 billion of credit to the underbanked and positively impacted the lives of over 3 million people, with the value of our investment growing in parallel.”

Hayo adds “Our impact philosophy is centered on investing in innovative and scalable businesses that solve meaningful problems and have the potential to impact millions in the region. When the impact is cemented in the company’s leadership and business model, commercial traction, impact, and financial value naturally grow hand-in-hand.”

Reflecting on their time with the organization, Saskia and Hayo express gratitude for the opportunity to contribute to positive change in Africa. “It has been an incredible journey to witness the transformative power of impact investing firsthand. We are immensely proud of what we have achieved together and are confident in the continued success of DOB Equity under new leadership”.

Moving forward, DOB will utilize its extensive expertise, team, network, and data accumulated over nearly 20 years to invest patient capital in skilled founders and businesses offering local solutions to local problems. The focus will be on innovative, realistically scalable start-ups within water, energy, and food systems, enhancing access and resilience against a backdrop of climate change impacts. DOB Equity will focus on Tanzania, Uganda and Kenya, targeting investments from seed to series A.

Frank Tobé, a board member of DOB Equity and member of DOB Equity’s founding family adds “On behalf of the Board and family, we extend our deepest gratitude to Saskia and Hayo for their exemplary leadership and unwavering dedication. Under their guidance, DOB Equity has flourished, contributing significantly to a more sustainable and inclusive future for Eastern-Africa.”

Frank Tobé, “As DOB Equity embarks on this new chapter, it remains steadfast in its mission to drive positive impact and create lasting change across the East-African region.”

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.—Paradox, the global leader in leveraging Conversational AI to transform how employers like McDonald’s, Nestlé, CVS Health, General Motors, and Marriott International get hiring work done, today announced the promotion of President and Chief Product Officer Adam Godson to the role of Chief Executive Officer, with founder Aaron Matos moving into the Executive Chairman role.

“From day one at Paradox, we set out to build an enduring company of scale by embracing AI in a way that drives real, measurable impact for our clients,” said Matos. “Serving Paradox continues to be the ultimate honor and I couldn’t be prouder of the progress we’ve made toward that goal. As we look to our next chapter, Adam is the ideal steward for Paradox’s future. He’s passionate about recruiting and HR and he cares deeply about the people he serves. Adam is a great partner and we share an obsession for transforming this industry — and our clients’ organizations — for the better. I couldn’t be more excited for our clients and Team Paradox.”

Godson, who started his career as an HR practitioner and served as the Chief Technology Officer at Cielo, joined Paradox in 2020 as Chief Product Officer and was promoted to President in 2023, leading Paradox’s global product and engineering teams. Since joining, Godson’s teams have helped the AI innovator achieve more than 1,000% growth — adding hundreds of clients, winning numerous awards (including multiple HR Executive Product of the Year awards), and finishing 2023 with the strongest quarter in the company’s history.

In 2023, Paradox was highlighted as an early adopter of Workday’s AI Marketplace — a curated group of AI and ML apps within the Workday ecosystem — and was also honored as a Workday Partner Innovation Award winner for its commitment to powering Workday customers’ success.

Paradox has been named to the Inc. 5000 list in three consecutive years and has twice ranked as the fastest growing recruiting technology company on Deloitte’s Fast 500.

While those accomplishments are meaningful, Godson said he’s proudest of the team that Paradox has built and the results it is driving for clients — including high impact transformations for companies like General Motors, Nestlé, Compass Group, and McDonald’s.

“It’s an incredible privilege to follow Aaron as CEO and lead Paradox on our next phase of innovation and growth,” said Godson. “We’ve seen the impact that Conversational AI can have on our clients and we’re proud of building a different kind of software company — where care for our clients and the candidates we serve is what matters most. I’m excited to carry forward that culture, while continuing to have access to Aaron’s experience and mentorship as we bring new products to market and drive innovation for our clients.”

“Paradox has built a company that’s revolutionizing our industry,” said Joe Shaker, President of Shaker Recruitment Marketing and long-time partner of Paradox. “Adam has not only played a pivotal role in that revolution, but is admired by clients and partners throughout the ecosystem.  He’ll provide a steady hand running the day to day and propelling that vision forward. Adam and Aaron have spent decades figuring out what’s next in HR technology and I’m excited to see what they’ve got up their sleeves for Paradox’s next act.”

As Executive Chairman, Matos will continue to serve as an advisor and mentor to Godson, Paradox’s Board of Directors, and the company’s executive team — focusing on developing and refining the company’s strategic vision and working collaboratively with the product team on future innovations. Mike Gregoire, who also sits on the board of AMD and Smartsheets, will continue as Lead Independent Director of Paradox’s Board of Directors. Gregoire was previously the CEO of Taleo and CA Technologies, and is the founding partner of investment firm Brighton Park Capital, which led Paradox’s Series B investment.
