Romi Gubes is the co-founder and CEO of Sensi.AI, an Austin-based company that turns ambient audio into around-the-clock care intelligence for seniors aging at home. A former Fortune 500 software engineer, she started the company in 2019 after a personal experience with vulnerability in care redirected her career toward protecting people who can't advocate for themselves. Under her leadership Sensi has raised more than $98 million, grown revenue 400% in a year, and expanded into what she describes as an AI operating system for senior care.
Malur Narayan is the CEO and co-founder of XTRIUM, an Austin-based B2B AI startup building an intelligence layer for materials that matches materials to real-world applications, surfaces sourcing risk, and turns supply chains from fragile to resilient. A computer engineer who was running machine-learning research and self-managed software teams in the early 1990s, he spent three decades scaling technology businesses across five continents at Nortel and Tata Consultancy Services before co-founding two AI startups. He frames XTRIUM around a single idea: making the search for a new application for any material as fast and easy as an internet search, compressing what used to take a year into days.
