I am a serial entrepreneur whose expertise is applying novel cooling and warming technology to real-world problems.
My first startup, RecoverX, created the world's first battery-powered icepack and heating pad. We raised venture capital and were later acquired by Hyperice, where the product now lives on as HypericeX.
When my wife and I became pregnant with our first, we realized that same cooling and warming technology could transform the bottle feeding experience. That insight led to Babba.
Babba makes the world’s first baby bottle cooler+warmer, helping parents safely refrigerate and warm bottles for easy night feedings and being on-the-go with their baby.

Babba - Heating and Cooling Baby Bottles at Scale
August 31st, 2026 | Season 3 | 47 mins 32 secs
Heating and cooling a baby's bottle sounds simple, but it is one of the hardest problems in consumer hardware. Dan Evans, CEO and founder of Babba, joins DeAndre Harakas and Grant Chapman to unpack the nonlinear world of thermoelectric cooling, the technology he first mastered at RecoverX (acquired by Hyperice) and carried into the baby space. It is part engineering deep dive, part founder's playbook on prototypes, customer feedback, and the grind of fundraising and go-to-market in hardware.
