Daniel Lubetzky is a business leader, investor, and social entrepreneur working to build bridges between people and increase appreciation for our shared humanity. While best known as the founder of KIND Snacks, Daniel's foray into food was the unexpected outcome of his work to use business to bring neighbors in Middle Eastern conflict regions together. The son of a Holocaust survivor, he conceived nonprofits the OneVoice Movement, Empatico, and Lubetzky Family Foundation to foster empathy and encourage civil action based on critical thinking and nuanced discourse. Through his family office Equilibra, Daniel is committed to helping fellow entrepreneurs build their visions into thriving brands. Daniel also helped launch the Frontline Impact Project, a KIND Foundation initiative in partnership with Project N95 and more than 60 companies to support heroes on the frontlines of COVID-19. Daniel is passionate about channeling business forces to achieve social good. With the introduction of the KIND's first fruit & nut bars in 2004, Daniel created a new healthy snacking category. He has since built KIND into one of America’s fastest-growing and most trusted snack companies. The now multi-billion-dollar brand is committed to creating a kinder and healthier world – one act, one snack at a time. In 2019, Daniel was appointed to the Anti-Defamation League’s Inaugural Board of Directors. His work to create economically sustainable and socially impactful businesses has been lauded by the World Economic Forum, Skoll Foundation, Conscious Capitalism, Hispanic Heritage Foundation, and Horatio Alger Association. In 2015, Daniel was named a Presidential Ambassador for Global Entrepreneurship by President Obama. He is the author of The New York Times bestseller Do the KIND Thing and a recurring shark on ABC’s television series Shark Tank. Daniel holds a BA in Economics and International Relations from Trinity University and JD from Stanford Law School. He is a proud US citizen, having emigrated from Mexico at age sixteen.
