Milo Krastev
Milo Krastev is the co-founder of Foodsmart (formerly Zipongo), the San Francisco company that turned nutrition into a covered health benefit for more than three million Americans. He spent a decade as the company's CFO and Head of Growth before handing off the finance chair in 2025 to run strategy and business development full time. Before Foodsmart he moved through the rooms where big money gets allocated - investment banking at Bank of America Merrill Lynch, activist investing at ValueAct Capital, and financial strategy at Palantir - then bet the whole resume on the idea that food, not just pills, belongs on a prescription pad.
