Jonathan Stambolis learned to turn fragmented systems into one clear view
Before founding Zenysis, Jonathan Stambolis moved through corporate law, a housing venture, UN diplomacy and Palantir. The through-line is less glamorous than the résumé: making complicated institutions usable.
David Fontain
David Fontain is the co-founder and CEO of Foresight, a San Francisco insurtech that pairs workers' compensation coverage with its own safety technology, Safesite. An Australian who grew up on the Gold Coast and started out in investment banking, he built Foresight after a childhood friend died in a preventable workplace accident. The company underwrites for hard-to-place middle-market businesses in industries like construction and manufacturing, using an 'engage and save' model that rewards safer companies with faster premium relief. Foresight has raised tens of millions from investors including OMERS Ventures, and its technology is credited with cutting workplace incident frequency by double digits.
