Sebastian Peralta
Sebastian Peralta is a physicist-turned-roboticist and co-founder of Mbodi AI, a New York startup teaching industrial robots new skills through plain language and quick demonstrations instead of weeks of reprogramming. A former core engineer on Google Public DNS (8.8.8.8) with a triple major in electrical engineering, computer science, and physics from UPenn, he builds embodied-AI systems where one robot's lesson instantly becomes the whole fleet's. Mbodi won ABB Robotics' global AI Startup Challenge, reached the Startup Battlefield Top 20 at TechCrunch Disrupt 2025, and is rolling out factory deployments with a Fortune 100 consumer-goods partner.
Harrison Chase
Harrison Chase is the co-founder and CEO of LangChain, the open-source framework that became the default scaffolding for developers building LLM-powered applications. Starting as an 800-line Python package he wrote as a side project in October 2022, LangChain has grown to serve 1 million+ developers, 80 million monthly downloads, and blue-chip enterprise customers from Uber to JPMorgan - reaching a $1.25 billion valuation after a $125 million Series B in October 2025. A Harvard-trained statistician who got into machine learning through sports analytics, Chase built LangChain to solve the problem he kept running into at work: there was no good way to chain LLM calls together into reliable, production-ready applications.
