Daniel Folkman is the Founder & CEO of Suprette, an operator-led investment platform focused on the experience economy. We partner with proven concepts, typically under $25M in revenue with scalable unit economics, across hospitality, live experiences, and performance. These businesses are built around real-world connection, culture, and community and enhanced by AI and technology, not displaced by it. We invest early, before institutional capital, and combine control-oriented investing with a forward-deployed operating model, embedding operators directly into our companies to scale these brands into enduring platforms.

Prior to founding Suprette, Daniel spent nearly a decade as Chief Business Officer at Gopuff, where he was one of the company’s earliest employees and a member of the executive team. During his time there, he helped scale the business to 400+ micro-fulfillment centers across more than 1,000 cities globally. He led corporate development, capital markets, business development, and advertising, raising over $3.5 billion in equity and $250+ million in debt, and executing a number of transformative acquisitions including BevMo! and Liquor Barn. He also built Gopuff Ads into a meaningful retail media platform, partnering with leading global brands.
