Dave Gilboa Biography
Dave Gilboa is the co-founder and co-CEO of Warby Parker, a lifestyle brand known for disrupting the eyewear industry by offering designer-quality prescription glasses at accessible prices. While attending the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, Gilboa and his colleagues identified the high cost of eyeglasses as an opportunity, which led to the founding of Warby Parker. He holds a Bachelor of Science in bioengineering from the University of California, Berkeley, and a Master of Business Administration from the Wharton School. Prior to Warby Parker, Gilboa worked as an associate at Allen & Company, where he invested in seed-stage and venture-stage healthcare and digital media companies and advised on mergers and acquisitions exceeding $20 billion. He also worked at Bain & Company, developing business strategies for retail and technology companies.
Under Gilboa’s leadership, Warby Parker has evolved from a startup to a publicly traded company recognized for its impact on retail and socially conscious business practices. Warby Parker donates a pair of glasses for every pair sold, supporting global vision care initiatives. The company introduced "Prescription Check," a mobile refraction service that allows eye doctors to assess patients’ vision and provide updated prescriptions remotely. Gilboa has also served as a general partner at Good Friends, LLC, a venture capital firm.
Gilboa is a member of the Aspen Institute's Henry Crown Fellowship class and the Aspen Global Leadership Network. He received the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award and was recognized by Vanity Fair as part of "The Next Establishment." He is a founding member of the Entrepreneur Board of Venture for America and serves on the board of directors of the nonprofit Warby Parker Impact Foundation.
Gilboa has overseen Warby Parker’s expansion into consumer technology, including the introduction of its first Intelligent Eyewear frame, which integrates design with artificial intelligence and mobile technology. He is recognized for his work in entrepreneurship, social responsibility, and innovation in consumer technology.
