A letter from the founder

Every life is a tapestry of trials and triumphs. Mine has been no exception — shaped by hardship, yet driven by an unwavering belief that even the hardest adversity can be transformed into strength.

I have seen adversity in its hardest forms. What could have broken me instead forged resilience and purpose.

That purpose is Grand Founders: a mission to restore trust, empower leadership, and build a community of responsible business leaders who believe ambition should serve humanity. Through the lenses of economic development and national security, we are building not only companies, but the foundations of stronger societies — where prosperity and stability are rooted in integrity and vision.

We are building not only companies, but a culture where integrity and vision shape lasting progress. This work is more than survival; it is transformation. It proves that resilience, when shared, becomes strength for many. My commitment is to turn hardship into hope, and vision into action — so together, we build a future of dignity, trust, and legacy.

Respectfully,
Richard Ogilchyn
