Everett Cook is the co-founder and CEO of Rho, a New York-based financial operations platform that combines business banking, corporate cards, payments, and expense management for growing companies. Before founding Rho in 2018 with Alex Wheldon, Cook spent roughly a decade in global macro investing, leading research at multi-billion-dollar funds and working in the orbit of figures like Steve Cohen and Michael Bloomberg. Raised in a New York finance family, he blends the discipline of a trader with an entrepreneurial streak that started at age 14, and has raised more than $200 million to build banking software for real, operating businesses rather than consumers.
Jan Szilagyi is the CEO and co-founder of Reflexivity (formerly Toggle AI), a New York fintech building zero-hallucination AI for investment analysis. He ran a $15 billion global macro book at the world's top hedge funds - Duquesne, Fortress, Lombard Odier - before deciding the tooling he wished he'd had didn't exist, so he built it. He earned the fastest Harvard Economics PhD on record (2.5 years) under Ken Rogoff, and his first backer was his old boss Stanley Druckenmiller.
