David's varied business career started at age 11 with the ubiquitous lawn mowing rounds and door-to-door sales. After dropping out of Year 10 to pursue his passion for chess, he founded a string of start-ups in Education, Software, Retail, E-commerce, Health Promotion and more. 

Over the past 3 years he consulted as chief mentor for a large Indian Education Trust, working to found a K-9 Tech School with a modern pedagogy, totally different from most education in the country.
