Scott Requadt
Scott Requadt is the founding CEO of Prolium Bioscience, a New York-based biotech that emerged from stealth in March 2026 with a $50M Series A from RTW and a Phase 1/2-ready CD20xCD3 bispecific T-cell engager, PRO-203, in-licensed from KeyMed Biosciences and InnoCare Pharma for severe autoimmune disease. A lawyer-turned-investor-turned-operator, Requadt spent a decade at Clarus Ventures (later Blackstone Life Sciences) as Managing Director, ran Talaris Therapeutics as CEO from 2018 through its 2023 wind-down, and now sits on the board of ESSA Pharmaceuticals. He trained at McGill, Toronto Law, and Harvard Business School (Baker Scholar), started his career as an M&A attorney at Davis Polk, and has spent the intervening twenty years turning that unusual pedigree into biotech deals.
Sanjay Poonen
Sanjay Poonen is the CEO and President of Cohesity, the data security and management company that absorbed Veritas' enterprise backup business in late 2024 to become the largest data protection vendor in the world. A Dartmouth-Stanford-Harvard alumnus who arrived in Boston at 18 with fifty dollars, he previously helped double revenues at both SAP (from ~$10B to ~$20B) and VMware (from ~$6B to ~$12B), where as COO he architected the landmark VMware-AWS partnership and the AirWatch acquisition.
Abhishek Agrawal
Abhishek Agrawal is the Co-Founder and CEO of Material Security, a San Francisco-based cybersecurity company that pioneered zero-trust protection for cloud email and collaboration environments. A Princeton-trained engineer who attended college at 16 and later earned his MBA from Harvard Business School as a Baker Scholar (top 5%), Agrawal co-founded Material Security in 2017 alongside former Dropbox colleagues Ryan Noon and Chris Park, inspired by the 2016 John Podesta email breach. Under his leadership, Material Security reached unicorn status ($1.1B valuation) after a $100M Series C in May 2022 led by Founders Fund, with backing from Andreessen Horowitz, Elad Gil, and Snowflake Ventures. The platform protects organizations like OpenAI, Anthropic, Reddit, Lyft, Roblox, and DoorDash against email-based threats and data loss in Google Workspace and Microsoft 365.
