David Lolis - Chief Forager & Founder of Polo Sponsor Hive2O

Outside The Boards™

On this Episode of Outside The Boards, I am thrilled to welcome entrepreneur, founder visionary and this Season’s Outside The Boards Podcast presenting partner, David Bee. In the realm of beverage innovation, David Bee stands out as the visionary founder and CEO of Hive₂O, a company at the forefront of redefining taste, quality, and sustainability. After a successful history in the functional beverage space, Bee returned to the industry with a mission to challenge the compromise often associated with Ready-to-Drink (RTD) products.
Bee's journey began with a commitment to simplicity, purity, and sustainability. Recognizing the persistent struggle to find healthy and great-tasting beverages, he aimed to disrupt the stagnant norms of the beverage market. The result was Hive₂O, a brand built on rigorous research, extensive testing, and an unwavering dedication to delivering an extraordinary taste experience.
Hive₂O's approach revolves around crafting flavors that appeal to all palates. Through meticulous attention to detail, the brand ensures a sensory journey from the first sip to the last. The emphasis on under-carbonation allows flavors to shine without being overshadowed, contributing to a unique taste waterfall.
Acknowledging the evolving consumer landscape, Hive₂O offers both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. Understanding that preferences vary, Bee's brand provides a sophisticated substitute or a refreshing alternative, catering to those who desire a complex taste without the effects of alcohol.
Setting itself apart from industry trends, Hive₂O chose vertical integration, establishing its production facility in Chicago. This decision underscores the brand's commitment to maintaining control over the production process from "Hive to Hand." With a sleek design reflecting transparency and sustainability, and honey as the heart of its products, Hive₂O sets a new standard in the beverage market, proving that excellence is achievable with a focus on quality and environmental responsibility and using polo as platform to share the brand’s story and introduce the product to the world.

About Outside The Boards™
In 2012, Outside The Boards™ founders witnessed their first polo match and were stunned by the sport's beauty and brutality. Few sports, if any, have these combined qualities. The sport's grace, intensity and "war like" imagery creates a shock and awe viewing experience like non other. Combine this with sport's party-like atmosphere and lifestyle and you have a recipe for success.
Today, the sport has yet to experience its full potential. The industry is fragmented, riddled with politics and in-experience. Outside The Boards™ was designed to change all that and bri...
