Dr. Deepak Sekar is an inventor and entrepreneur. Over the last decade, he has been granted more than 200 patents, making him one of the most prolific inventors in the world today. You may know him from his role as founder and CEO of Chowbotics, which built the world’s first fresh food making robot named “Sally”. Chowbotics was named one of the world’s most innovative companies by Fast Company, and was acquired by Doordash in 2020. When he’s not coercing his family to test his latest invention, he’s likely climbing a distant mountain.
