President

Eric Donovan is a seasoned entrepreneur, product strategist, and advisor with a background in building and scaling consumer-focused technology companies. He is best known as the former founder of Drooble, a venture-backed technology startup created around the belief that powerful digital tools should be intuitive, human, and seamlessly integrated into everyday life.

As founder of Drooble, Eric was responsible for shaping the company from the ground up. He led product vision and strategy, worked closely with engineering and design teams, and guided the company through early development, launch, and market entry. Under his leadership, Drooble focused on simplifying complex technology, prioritizing user experience, and building scalable systems designed to grow with its community. His role required balancing long-term vision with the realities of execution, fundraising, hiring, and navigating the challenges of an early-stage company.

Eric’s work has always lived at the intersection of technology, design, and human behavior. He has a strong instinct for identifying unmet needs, translating abstract ideas into usable products, and aligning teams around a clear mission. Throughout his career, he has collaborated with founders, operators, and creatives to help turn early concepts into real-world solutions, often acting as a bridge between technical execution and brand storytelling.

Following his time at Drooble, Eric shifted his focus toward advisory and leadership roles, working with emerging companies and mission-driven organizations. He is particularly drawn to brands and platforms that prioritize community, accessibility, and long-term impact over short-term growth. His experience as a founder gives him a practical, hands-on perspective, allowing him to support leadership teams with clarity, discipline, and empathy.
