About the Speaker:

David Rabie is the Co-Founder and CEO of Tovala, a smart oven and chef-prepared meal service. The idea for Tovala was born while David earned his MBA at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business. Inspired by the pain point of minimal time to prepare and cook fresh meals at home, David combined his passion for food and technology to solve the problem. Today Tovala is a category-defining business with more than thirty million meals shipped nationwide. The company has been featured in the Wall Street Journal, Forbes, Fast Company and TechCrunch.

Prior to business school, David worked in a variety of roles directly under the Co-Founder of the Veggie Grill, the largest chain of plant-based restaurants in the country, and ran a chain of frozen yogurt stores in California and Ohio. He learned about the start-up tech industry by launching Draftpedia, the first sports encyclopedia built exclusively for mobile.

David graduated with high honors from the University of California at Santa Barbara with a B.A. in History. At Chicago Booth, he worked part-time for Foundation Capital, led the entrepreneurship club on campus and completed an internship at Google. David speaks four languages, lived in China, London and Madrid, and has been passionate about clean eating since attending a health retreat at age 18. He currently lives in Chicago with his wife, Jessica, and daughters, Elizabeth, Penelope and Violet.
