Jean-Paul Gedeon
President
JPG HAWAII
Jean-Paul Gedeon grew a high school passion project into a million dollar business.
He is a well respected and experienced Entrepreneur living in Honolulu Hawaii. His beach lifestyle brand IDEL HAWAII (pronounced ideal) began selling stickers, shirts and hats, soon expanded into the well-known graphic design and printing business JPG HAWAII.
Constantly growing JPG with his business partners and brothers Joseph and Branden Gedeon, JPG has now expanded in to the Out-of-Home advertising industry with JPG MEDIA. Launched in 2015, JPG MEDIA has quickly become the largest provider of Out-of-Home media in a challenging market where traditional billboards are banned.
As President and Founder of the award-winning companies, Business Pivot of the Year (Pacific Edge magazine), (Best of Yelp [printers], Best Family Run Business nominee, Business Leadership Hawaii). Gedeon credits his success to the same drive that pushed him to achieve the coveted Eagle Scout badge at 17 or become Oahu's Blockbuster Video Game Champion at 12: the support of his family and community.
Active in philanthropy and many non-profit associations, he has served on the Board of Directors for Entrepreneur's Organization of Hawaii and the Sales & Marketing Executives of Honolulu. He is also a Paul Harris Fellow of the Rotary Foundation.
