Evan Smith
Evan Smith is the co-founder and CEO of Altana, a New York company that turns the world's public and non-public trade data into a shared, AI-driven model of the global supply chain. Under his leadership Altana reached a $1 billion valuation in 2024 on a $200 million Series C, and its platform is now used by enterprises like Maersk and BASF and by government agencies including U.S. Customs and Border Protection. Smith frames the work as building 'Globalization 2.0' - rebuilding global commerce to be more resilient, secure, and fair rather than retreating from it.
