Akamai Technologies
Akamai began with a pixel hidden on Disney's website. Twenty-seven years later, the network built to beat the 'World Wide Wait' is becoming a security perimeter and an AI cloud - without giving up the pipes that made it matter.
Azion
Azion wants to make the edge feel less like a map of servers and more like a programmable workbench. Its bet: the next important application will be built, secured and observed closer to the people using it.
A10 Networks, Inc.
A10 Networks built a durable business in the least glamorous place on the internet: the traffic choke point. Now the same machinery that kept telecom networks moving is being recast for APIs, AI models and agentic software.
ammune.ai
ammune.ai (formerly L7 Defense) is a cybersecurity company that builds ammune™, a fully autonomous, AI-based platform for protecting APIs - and, increasingly, AI systems and data centers - from cyberattacks. Using unsupervised machine learning, ammune auto-discovers APIs and builds a tailored protection layer for each one inline from the first request, blocking dozens of attack types (bots, DDoS, business-logic abuse, injection) in real time without pre-training or rule-writing. The platform is platform-agnostic, running on-premises, in the cloud, in Kubernetes clusters, and offloaded onto DPUs such as NVIDIA BlueField-2, and it recently expanded toward offline, air-gapped protection for AI workloads.

He co-founded L7 Defense (now ammune.ai), an AI-driven API security company that raised Series A backing from TRUMPF Venture and Quick Heal, and today works as a Managing Partner at TYH Investments, backing early-stage high-tech startups. He built his reputation on the unglamorous frontier of API-borne attacks, arguing that autonomous, machine-learning defense - not human-tuned rules - is the only way to keep pace with modern cyberattacks.

Matthew Prince
Matthew Prince is the co-founder and CEO of Cloudflare, the internet infrastructure giant that powers roughly 20% of all web traffic worldwide. A recovering lawyer turned serial entrepreneur, Prince built Cloudflare from a Harvard Business School business plan competition entry into a publicly traded company with a market cap in the tens of billions. Equally at home discussing BGP routing and content moderation philosophy, he is widely regarded as one of the most consequential figures shaping how the internet actually works - for better or for worse, depending on who you ask.
