How I Raised $400K To Design An Innovative Baby Plate That Stays Put
Hello! Who are you and what business did you start?
Hi! My name is Karen Braveheart, and I’m the CEO/Founder of Prodigi Kids. Prodigi Kids exists to create more loving moments of emotional connection between parents and their children. I left behind a lucrative career as an attorney in NYC, moved out to San Diego, while 5 months pregnant with my 1st child, and realized my true calling as a designer and entrepreneur when a single stressful moment with my then 18 months old changed the entire trajectory of my life.
After years of R&D and raising a successful seed round of $400,000, I launched our 1st product line, the Adi plate, in Q4 of 2019 to rave reviews. The Adi plate has a cute penguin design for little ones with highly engineered suction and 100% childproof release technology that REALLY works to stay stuck to a table surface and high chair...so kids can’t hurl their plates and grownups don’t lose their sanity! It’s made in the USA!!
