Daniel Shakhani

Daniel Shakhani is a globally recognised social entrepreneur and change agent, known for founding and scaling initiatives at the intersection of values, human flourishing, and systemic change.

He is the Founder of Abraham House, a non-profit incubator dedicated to fostering dialogue, dignity, and shared values across cultures, faiths, and nations — not through ideology, but through principled action and collaboration.

Abraham House incubated 250 Days for 250 Years, a landmark civic and educational initiative marking America’s Semiquincentennial. Daniel is a co-founder of the project alongside Hollywood icon Kelsey Grammer and Rabbi Andrew Shaw, working in collaboration with the White House to create a unifying, non-partisan platform focused on education, service, wellbeing, and national renewal — looking not only at America’s past 250 years, but the values that will shape the next 250.

Daniel’s work has been recognised internationally, including being named among the UK’s most influential leaders for his contributions to social impact and responsible innovation. He has advised and convened leaders across business, government, and civil society, with a consistent focus on building trust, restoring meaning, and creating long-term positive change at scale.
