Sigmoid
Sigmoid is an AI-first data solutions company that helps large enterprises turn complex data into measurable business value. Founded in 2013 by three IIT Kharagpur batchmates, the firm pairs deep data engineering with data science, MLOps, generative AI and agentic AI to build and operate the pipelines, models and analytics that Fortune 500 companies in CPG, retail, financial services and life sciences rely on for faster, data-driven decisions.
Bedrock Analytics
Bedrock Analytics is an Oakland-based B2B SaaS company that turns the messy syndicated sales data CPG (consumer packaged goods) brands buy from sources like NielsenIQ and Circana into clear, automated selling stories. Built 'by CPG people for CPG people,' its cloud platform harmonizes retail data and uses a multi-model AI stack (ChatGPT, Claude, Llama) to generate visualizations, insights, and AI-driven sales decks - helping brand sales teams win shelf space and category reviews. The company tracks more than $100 billion in CPG sales across 80+ categories every month.
Tredence Inc.
Tredence is a data science and AI engineering firm built around a single, stubborn idea: most analytics projects die in the gap between insight and action. The 'last-mile' is the company's organizing obsession - bridging dashboards and decisions for the world's largest retailers, CPGs, healthcare and telecom companies through industry accelerators, ML platforms and a deep alliance with Databricks.
Will Salcido
Will Salcido is the Co-Founder and CEO of Bedrock Analytics, an AI-powered CPG data analytics platform that transforms syndicated and retailer data into compelling sales stories for consumer goods manufacturers. A Cornell-trained economist who cut his teeth at Nestlé, Novartis, Ghirardelli, and Lindt & Sprüngli across 12 countries, Salcido bet half his 401(k) on the idea that data storytelling - not raw dashboards - was the missing link between CPG brands and retail shelf space. Today, Bedrock tracks over $100 billion in CPG sales monthly, serves clients across 350+ product categories, and runs a multi-model AI stack using ChatGPT, Claude, and Llama to automate insight generation at scale.
