Paul Jansen

Insights on the future of golf development, design, and experience.

I am a golf course architect with over 25 years of international experience delivering golf, practice, and entertainment environments across multiple continents.

Today, I am the founder and CEO of Himalayas Golf, where we focus on the design and delivery of modern golf destinations that combine playability, sustainability, and commercial performance.

This portal exists as a personal platform to share ideas, perspectives, and lessons from that journey.
