IN SHORT

Astute entrepreneur, visionary, and philanthropist Roberto Hernández has left his mark on some of Mexico’s foremost financial institutions. Deeply connected to the land and Mexico’s unmatched wealth of cultural heritage, he has also worked for decades to promote education, culture and environmental sustainability through foundations and initiatives in urban centers and remote areas of the countryside alike. And it is the integrity with which he’s accomplished this that he’s proudest of today. “I have done many satisfying things,” he says. “And I can look at everyone in the eyes.”
