Damon Henry
Damon Henry is the CEO and co-founder of Asylon Robotics, a Philadelphia-area company building an American-made robotic perimeter security platform that pairs autonomous aerial drones, robot dogs, and human-in-the-loop AI into a Robotics-as-a-Service offering. An MIT-trained aeronautical engineer who worked at GE, Boeing, and Johns Hopkins APL before founding the company in 2015 with two dorm roommates, Henry has grown Asylon into a company that has flown more than 100,000 security missions for Fortune 500 firms and the Department of Defense, and raised a $26M Series B led by Insight Partners in 2025.
Gabriel Tremblay
Gabriel Levesque-Tremblay is the CEO and co-founder of HexemBio, a New York and Berkeley biotech building what it calls the first scalable blood stem cell rejuvenation therapy. A synthetic biologist with a PhD from UBC and a postdoc at UC Berkeley, he is a two-time founder and Y Combinator alumnus who earlier co-founded the cultivated-meat startup Orbillion Bio. At HexemBio he turns aged hematopoietic stem cells young again by passing them through a recreated embryonic 'Synthetic Yolk Sac' before returning them by IV. The company closed a $10.4M seed round led by Draper Associates in April 2026 and is targeting first-in-human trials by 2027.
Mohammed Memon
Mohammed Memon is the CEO and co-founder of Hifinite Inc. (dba Chronica), a San Diego telehealth company that builds an AI-enabled digital health platform for remote patient monitoring, chronic care, and virtual visits. An engineer turned product entrepreneur, he holds graduate degrees from Clemson and Harvard and spent two decades shipping software before founding Hifinite in 2016. Under his direction the company built the hiCare suite and the Chronica brand, reached roughly $1.7M in annual revenue with a lean 23-person team, and showed up at the industry's biggest telemedicine stages.
Oluwasoga Oni
Oluwasoga Oni is the CEO and co-founder of MDaaS Global, the Nigerian healthtech company behind BeaconHealth Diagnostics, one of the country's fastest-growing diagnostic clinic networks. A software engineer turned MIT systems-engineering graduate, Oni grew up watching his father run a hospital in small-town Ondo State without the equipment he needed. He turned that memory into a company that started by importing refurbished medical machines and pivoted into building its own diagnostic centers, performing tens of thousands of tests and expanding across Lagos and underserved Nigerian cities. In 2026 the MIT Africa Business Club named him the recipient of its inaugural Alumni Impact Award.
Vinay Goel
Vinay Goel is the CEO and co-founder of Wald.ai, a Palo Alto startup building contextual data-loss protection for the age of generative AI. After more than 30 years in product and technology - a decade at Google leading Maps and Local, then top product roles at JLL, Kiavi, Check Point and Webroot - he co-founded Wald.ai in 2024 to solve the 'shadow AI' problem: employees feeding sensitive company data into ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini. Wald.ai redacts sensitive data inline, lets the AI answer, then restores the original context before the user sees it. He raised a $4M seed round in December 2024 and sits on the Forbes Technology Council.
