Emil Eifrem
Emil Eifrem is the co-founder and CEO of Neo4j, the company he built from a cocktail-napkin sketch on a 2000 flight to Mumbai into the world's leading graph database platform. He coined the term 'graph database,' developed the property graph model, and has guided Neo4j to a $2.2B valuation, over $200M in annual revenue, and adoption by 84 of the Fortune 100. Beyond enterprise metrics, he launched the Graphs4Good program channeling graph technology toward cancer research, pandemic supply chains, and investigative journalism — most famously the Panama Papers investigation that won the Pulitzer Prize and toppled Iceland's government.
