Johann Moonesinghe
CEO,
inKind
Johann Moonesinghe - CEO & Co-Founder of inKind: Johann is a serial entrepreneur and angel investor with seed level investments in companies including Uber, Twilio and Allbirds. After selling his tech company, he personally invested in 30 restaurants before founding and operating a restaurant incubator from 2015-2020 to help chefs run their businesses. As CEO and co-founder of inKind, he combines his finance experience, restaurant expertise, and passion for food. Under Johann’s leadership, inKind has funded over 2,000 restaurants across the US and their consumer app offering dining rewards has been downloaded by 1.5 million users. inKind co-founder and Johann’s younger brother, Rajan Moonesinghe, was killed in November 2022. This tragic event has caused Johann to double down on the core ethos of inKind - that restaurants are core drivers of the American dream, creating wealth and jobs in a time when we need both. Earlier in the year, inKind committed to fund $250mm to independent restaurants. Along with inKind funding, inKind provides technology, partnerships, and other support to ensure that the restaurants are successful
