Keynote Speaker

NATE HOLZAPFEL

 

Nate Holzapfel is the creative force and co-founder behind Mission Belt Company headquartered in Utah. Born in Provo, Utah, Nate spent his childhood growing up in Orange County, California and rural Woodland, Utah. He prides himself on never having passed an opportunity to fuel his passions for entrepreneurship and fighting world hunger. Every time we sell a Mission Belt, a portion of the proceeds goes to assist hungry families through interest free micro lending on a global level. To date, the company has helped over 15,000 families in the fight against hunger.

Similarly to innovators such as Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg and even Elizabeth Holmes, Nate dropped out of college to pursue a career in sales. Having sold everything from cars, to insurance in Mexico, to even houses over the phone, Nate Holzapfel became an expert in sales & marketing. He states, "I've always been good at my job and was always a top performer. But I felt trapped. I sold everything I own and put all of my efforts into the best idea I had. The rest is history."

In June 2012, he launched Mission Belt Company. The accessory industry has always held a huge portion of the fashion industry, however, no one company had focused solely on belts. Fashion houses designed and created them as an afterthought. Nate had a vision to create a company that made only belts, the first of its kind in the fashion industry to ever truly brand a belt. Oakley was first with Sunglasses, Skullcandy was successful with making headphones a fashionable accessory, and Nate's vision was to accomplish this with Mission Belts.

In spring of 2013, Nate appeared on ABC's Shark Tank, pitching the Mission Belt to seek a capital investment. He struck a deal with fashion mogul and branding expert, Daymond John. Nate pitched to the Sharks that the "old way of selling is dead." His ideology and method proved not only correct, but to be a huge success.

Find out how Nate Holzapfel not only survived in a struggling economy, but thrived in it. Create your own economy or expand upon your already solid foundation with "The Nate State of Mind" using Nate's expertise. Nate has traveled the country as a keynote speaker and hired to assist individuals, small businesses and multinational corporations. Instead of using cliches and one-liners, Nate will speak directly to your team from his heart with meaningful, real life experiences sharing information that is relevant to growing your business in today's world.

Submit to peer pressure, get a Mission Belt!

ADAM LOWY
Founder & Executive Director
Move for Hunger

 

Adam Lowy, New Jersey native, Springsteen fan and ASU Sun Devil for life, founded Move For Hunger in the summer of 2009. Adam's family has owned a moving company in New Jersey for nearly 90 years (dating back to Great-Grandpa Lowy). After years of seeing so much food wasted when people move, Adam decided to take action.

Move For Hunger is a non-profit organization that works with the relocation industry to support the efforts of local food banks. When people move, they throw out a lot of "stuff" when they move. Unfortunately, some of this "stuff" is food that could be delivered to a family in need rather than thrown away. By teaming up with relocation companies across the country, Move For Hunger is creating one of the nation's largest year-round service programs. Relocation partners offer to pick up the unwanted, non-perishable food items from those who are moving and deliver it to their local food banks.

What started with Adam's family's small moving company has grown to work with over 600 relocation companies and thousands of real estate professionals nationwide. Together, they have collected over 6 million lbs of food for food banks across the nation - enough to feed over five million people.

Adam is working hard to create a sustainable solution to hunger relief in this country. By incorporating philanthropy into the relocation process, Move For Hunger is educating and engaging more people to participate in this solution each and every day.

Adam proudly represents the New York City Hub of the World Economic Forum's Global Shapers Community where he proudly represented the community at the Forum's Annual Meeting in Davos in 2015. In 2014, he was honored among Forbes 30 Under 30. Adam appeared on MSNBC and was a guest on Meghan McCain's new show "Raisin' McCain" in 2013. In 2011 he became a Bluhm/Helfand Social Innovation Fellow and was honored at the VH1 Do Something Awards for his commitment to creating social change. Move For Hunger was also honored on the American Giving Awards which aired on NBC in December of 2011.
