About Nat Gelb
I\'m an expert in the art of community building and the subscription business model. I\'m obsessed with discovering shared human identities/passions, and building scalable (and profitable) communities around them. I\'ve spent most of my professional life doing so; first as employee #1 at FoundersCard, where the identity was entrepreneurship (over the 3+ years I was there, we grew it into the nation\'s largest subscription membership club for entrepreneurs), and now as the founder of Tasting Collective, where the identity is food lover (it\'s now the nation\'s largest subscription dining club operating in 16 cities nationwide).
Experience
Founder & CEO
Dec 2014 — Present · New York, NY, US
Tasting Collective is a roving community of food lovers on a mission to create a different kind of restaurant experience. To us, restaurants are stages upon which stories are told and setting in which culinary risks are taken. We host chef-led dining events at top independent eateries all over Austin, Chicago, Nashville, New York, Philadelphia, San Francisco Bay Area and Washington DC, and we\'ll be expanding to more cities soon! At our events, restaurant chefs get the opportunity to experiment with new recipes and come out of the kitchen to share stories and connect with diners in a meaningful way.
