Before he co-founded Flo, Dmitry Gurski wrote a programming book that ran to 1,100 pages. His career since then has turned on a related question: how much can you learn before somebody tells you to stop?

A childhood entrepreneur with a taste for cars, the FLO co-founder built his career around a question every electric driver eventually asks: where will I charge? The answer has taken him from Université Laval to a North American network - and through the harder business of keeping it running.
Katherine Allen is the co-founder and CEO of Flo Recruit (branded as Flo), an Austin-based vertical SaaS company that builds recruiting and hiring software for the legal industry. She started the company as an undergraduate at the University of Texas at Austin, went through Y Combinator in 2019, and left school to build Flo full time with co-founder Atreya Misra. Today Flo partners with more than 125 law firms, including close to 70% of the AmLaw 100, and over 100 law schools serving 25,000-plus students, and has raised roughly $5.5 million-plus across seed and a 2025 Series A round.
