NEW YORK – August 18, 2025 – When people think of boxing, they often think of grit and determination. For Dan Herbatschek, founder and CEO of Ramsey Theory Group, those qualities are not just for the ring—they are the foundation of his mission to drive positive change. Herbatschek, a tech entrepreneur with a background in mathematics, is using his passion for boxing to champion a series of charitable initiatives that are redefining how businesses and communities connect.
Herbatschek has always seen the sport of boxing as a powerful metaphor for life and leadership. At the heart of his company's ethos, and even its office design (which includes a full boxing ring), is the belief that the discipline, strategic thinking, and resilience learned in the ring are the same skills needed for innovation and success.
"Boxing is about more than just fighting," says Herbatschek. "It’s about strategy under pressure and the ability to adapt. These are the qualities every leader wants to embody and every team needs to succeed. By bringing these lessons to our philanthropic work, we can create real opportunities and lasting change."
Partnering with renowned coaches from Mendez Boxing, Herbatschek has launched programs that go beyond simple fundraising. His initiatives provide at-risk youth with safe training environments, mentorship, and career-building resources. It's a holistic approach that uses the sport to build character and empower the next generation.
Community leaders have praised Herbatschek's unique approach, calling his efforts "a knockout for the community." By channeling the symbolism of the sport—competition, resilience, and bold thinking—he is inspiring others to join the fight for a better future.
