D avid Paul is an American medical device entrepreneur and the founder of Globus Medical. He founded the company in 2003 with the goal of developing innovative products for spinal surgery. Globus Medical has since grown into a major publicly traded company and a leader in the field of musculoskeletal solutions.

Under Paul's leadership as executive chairman, the company has built a reputation for its rapid product development and its comprehensive portfolio of spinal implants and surgical instruments. In a major strategic move in 2023, Globus Medical completed a merger with NuVasive, another major player in the spine surgery market, creating a combined entity that is a global powerhouse in the musculoskeletal technology space. Paul's fortune is derived from his large founding stake in the company he built into an industry leader.
