Adam Bowen (born 1974/1975) is an American businessman, and the co-founder (with James Monsees) and currently advisor at Juul Labs, an electronic cigarette company.

Bowen earned a BA in physics from Pomona College, followed by an MS in product design from Stanford University.[2]

Bowen and Monsees founded vaporizer company Pax Labs in 2007. Juul was spun off from Pax Labs in 2017. In December 2018, following tobacco company Altria taking a 35% stake in Juul, Bowen's net worth increased from an estimated $730 million to more than $1.1 billion.[3] After subsequent write-downs of the value of Juul, Forbes no longer considers Bowen a billionaire as of 2020.[1]

Bowen is married, with three children, and lives in San Mateo, California.[1]
