Meet David.

HQ: New York, NY

Leadership: Peter Rahal

Opportunity: Revolutionize the taste and macronutrient content of high-protein foods.

Vision: David is a disruptive food technology platform with a mission to create high-protein, low-calorie, blood-sugar-friendly foods designed to increase muscle and decrease fat. Their flagship product is a protein bar boasting an industry-leading 28 grams of protein, 150 calories, and zero grams of sugar, representing the highest protein per calorie of any currently available protein bar. The bars are gluten-free and use a unique "fat system" featuring EPG (esterified propoxylated glycerol), a modified plant-based fat with 0.7 calories per gram compared to 9 for regular fat.
