In recognition of his effective leadership in times of crisis, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton bestowed Roos with the Sue M. Cobb Award for Exemplary Diplomatic Service in 2011. He also received the Distinguished Public Service Award in 2014, awarded by Navy Secretary Ray Mabus in recognition of his leadership of Operation Tomodachi, the United States’ humanitarian partnership with Japan, and his efforts to build a deeper security relationship between the two countries.

After returning from Japan, Ambassador Roos co-founded a venture capital firm, Geodesic Capital. He also founded an investment and advisory firm, The Roos Group, of which he is CEO.

Ambassador Roos is a senior adviser to Centerview Partners, and in 2013, he joined Salesforce’s board of directors. He also sits on the boards of the Mansfield Foundation, Sony Corporation, and Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group. He is an advisor to the Toyota Research Institute and the Stanford Center for Asian Health Research and Education.
