Shane Curran

Shane Curran is the founder and CEO of Evervault, an encryption infrastructure company he started in 2018 after dropping out of University College Dublin three days into a business and law degree. A year earlier, at 16, he had won the BT Young Scientist and Technology Exhibition with a post-quantum encrypted storage project called qCrypt. Evervault sells developer-facing tools that keep sensitive data - card numbers, health records, keys - encrypted while still being processed, running inside AWS Nitro Enclaves. The company has raised $46 million from Sequoia, Kleiner Perkins, Index Ventures and Ribbit Capital, most recently a $25M Series B in March 2026.
