For this first episode of Agents of Innovation Season 2, Dave's guests are the co-founders of Slate Milk, Manny Lubin, and Josh Belinsky. Recovery has become a pillar of every athlete's training regimen - as important as gear, workouts, nutrition, and data/analytics - and chocolate milk has long been one of the best-kept recovery secrets of serious athletes. Unfortunately, chocolate milk has been considered a kids' drink, not a serious recovery beverage, and not optimized for the nutritional + recovery needs of the athlete. Enter Slate Milk. Founded by Josh + Manny with a vision to create a "clean slate" for chocolate milk by offering an "adult version" - all-natural, lactose-free, with 20g protein, 0g added sugar, and more protein, carbs, electrolytes. In just a few short years, the duo has experienced a successful Kickstarter launch, an appearance on Shark Tank, and successful launches at top retailers, including Wegmans, Whole Foods, Publix, Giant, Harris Teeter and selling in CrossFit boxes, Amazon, and for delivery via GoPuff.  Manny and Josh share the story of their journey, including how they build teams, stay focused, and are creating a fitness brand found in grocery aisles - not the nutrition section - that people consume every day for strength + energy.
