Place of birth: Worksop, United Kingdom
Head of Unilever’s Nutrition Patents

“New technologies will be required to secure a sustainable future by transforming the global food chain. In order for partners to work together confidently to provide new innovations, intellectual property is essential.

Before beginning work as an ice cream scientist at Unilever in 1996, Danny Keenan was originally trained as a chemist and earned a DPhil in food biopolymers. In 2003, Danny changed occupations to become a patent attorney after realising the importance of intellectual property to the creative sector through the protection of ideas he developed while creating new ice cream technologies.

He currently serves as the head of the international patent group that safeguards Unilever’s advancements in nutrition. The group wants to fulfil the Future Foods Commitments that serve as the foundation for the business’s nutrition division and its nutrition business, and it is his ambition to help shape a fair global food system.

Daniel Keenan

“I discovered my love of sailing off the coast of Maine as a student with Outward Bound before joining the professional crew aboard the sail training tallship “Roald Amundsen” in Germany. Following my time in the Baltic and North Seas, I worked for a time delivering yachts both along the Eastern seaboard and Transatlantic. I then lived for a few years in Maui, HI giving tours aboard whale watch and snorkeling vessels so don’t be surprised to get a call from an 808 phone number! After working aboard schooners in Bermuda and the Bahamas, I eventually arrived in Boston, MA where I jumped ship and established myself in the Boston marine community. I have extensive sailing and powerboat knowledge and experience and am dedicated to finding the right, quality boats for my buyers. As we all know there are thousands of boats for thousands of boaters– it’s all about finding the right one!”

Getting to know Daniel Keenan Who has impressed you most with what they’ve accomplished? My Cousin (Todd Frazier):

Flashback to when you were 10 years old. What do you want to be when you grow up? garbage man (they hang on the side of the truck).

Tell me two pet peeves. When people aren’t realistic and have indecisiveness.

About Dan Keenan Dan Keenan Daniel Keenan

Daniel Keenan

Daniel Keenan worked for more than 10 years in the hospitality, fast-moving consumer goods, and housing industries.

Daniel gained a lot of talents during the course of each and thoroughly enjoyed working on those projects, but the family’s company, Keenan Properties, is where Daniel has now established his foundation in the housing industry.

For Daniel Keenan, it was quite a culture shock at first to move from Kellogg’s, a corporation that markets its products in more than 180 countries and employs over 37,000 people worldwide (300 of whom were in the office Daniel worked in). Daniel says it’s been wonderful seeing his family, as well as himself, benefit from his labour of love.
