About Robert Kehaya
I’m an entrepreneur with 15 years of experience in launching and scaling businesses, teaching innovation, and providing strategic advisory and management consulting services. My career has been centered on identifying and leveraging emerging market opportunities.Currently, I own two vaping and hemp supply locations on the North Carolina coast and previously co-founded the startup SpeedFaces, which provided virtual student services.While living in California, I discovered Proto Hologram, the world’s first holographic entertainment platform. I became an investor and played a key role in managing deal flow, supporting a $12 million fundraising effort, and leading due diligence for a multimillion-dollar M&A transaction. I worked closely with investors, including True Capital Ventures, to secure the company’s growth.Today, I lead Kehaya Enterprises, my venture development studio, where I provide consulting and advisory services to startups and established businesses. My current engagements span various sectors, including technology, consumer goods, entertainment, and infrastructure development, with a particular emphasis on managing deal flow, conducting thorough due diligence, and providing operational expertise.My work is driven by a commitment to human-centered capitalism, with a strong emphasis on building meaningful relationships. I’ve served on the Entrepreneurship Advisory Board for UNC Wilmington and as a Board Member and Mentor for Hometown Hires, an initiative dedicated to breaking the cycle of generational poverty in North Carolina’s Cape Fear area.
