Bio Info
Ben Foster is the Co-Founder and Executive Chairman at Prodify.

Foster has led successful technology products for the last 25 years. He cut his teeth at eBay during its heyday, then moved to product leadership roles at Opower, GoCanvas, and most recently as CPO of WHOOP. He has been featured on several product podcasts, spoken at top product events, lectured at HBS, and co-authored the book Build What Matters.
Ben lives in Virginia with his wife and son, where he splits time between mentoring/advising and hanging out with friends, family, and nature.
