Founded in 2008 by Wharton classmates Neil Blumenthal and Dave Gilboa, Warby Parker disrupted the eyewear market by combining an omnichannel retail strategy with a proprietary social mission that has distributed millions of glasses globally. The company distinguishes itself through physical locations designed to drive organic engagement and technological innovations like virtual try-ons and remote prescription checks, which collectively maintain a Net Promoter Score of 86. By prioritizing human-centric store experiences and rigorous cultural documentation, the founders have scaled the business to over 88 stores while rejecting the notion that physical retail is obsolete in favor of a seamless digital-physical integration.

Technology, Creativity, Values: What Drives the New Disruptors?
Andy Serwer, Brandon Beck, Brad Delson, Dave Gilboa, Payal Kadakia, Mike Shinoda, Eric Schmidt, Bradley Horowitz, Brad Lee O'
Four industry leaders from Riot Games, Linkin Park, ClassPass, and Warby Parker present a "New Disruptor" business model that replaces quarterly profit maximization with long-term stakeholder unity. By integrating employees, fans, and customers into a single ecosystem, these organizations leverage deep empathy and real-time feedback to achieve Net Promoter Scores in the high 80s and 90s. This strategy reframes relationships as the primary asset, enabling rapid organizational scaling while maintaining social missions that directly drive sustainable profitability.
