Hamid R. Moghadam (born August 26, 1956) is an Iranian-born American business executive and philanthropist.
Moghadam currently serves as chairman and CEO of Prologis, a global industrial real estate investment trust (REIT), and a S&P 500 company.
Moghadam is also a trustee of Stanford University, board member of the Urban Land Institute, and past chairman of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT).
Moghadam received the EY National Entrepreneur of the Year Overall Award in 2013 and is a past recipient of the Ellis Island Medal of Honor from the National Ethnic Coalition of Organizations Foundations, Inc. (NECO).
Hamid Moghadam was born in 1956 in Tehran, Iran. In 1973, he entered the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). At MIT, Moghadam received Bachelor and Master of Science degrees in engineering. In 1980, Moghadam received a MBA from the Stanford Graduate School of Business.
After college, Moghadam planned to return to his native Iran. Moghadam’s plans were abruptly derailed by the Iranian Revolution in 1979.
In 1983, Moghadam and Douglas Abbey founded Abbey, Moghadam & Company. They were joined by T. Robert Burke in 1984 and established AMB Institutional Realty Advisors, later named AMB Property Corp. Initially, they planned to provide investment advisory services, but the company quickly “morphed into a workout business” that helped investors revitalize underperforming real estate assets. In the late 1980s, AMB refined its investment strategy and focused on industrial parks and neighborhood shopping centers in infill trade areas.
