Jason Fried
Jason Fried is the co-founder and CEO of 37signals, the bootstrapped software company behind Basecamp, HEY, and ONCE. A contrarian voice in tech, he has spent 25+ years arguing that smaller is smarter, calm beats hustle, and profitable beats funded. He co-wrote Rework - a Wall Street Journal and New York Times bestseller - and his TED Talk on why work doesn't happen at work has millions of views. Along with co-founder David Heinemeier Hansson, he has built one of the most influential (and deliberately small) software companies in history.
David Heinemeier Hansson
David Heinemeier Hansson (DHH) is a Danish programmer, entrepreneur, and racing driver best known for creating Ruby on Rails - the open-source web framework that powered GitHub, Shopify, Airbnb, and thousands of other companies. As CTO and co-owner of 37signals (makers of Basecamp and HEY email), he is one of tech's most outspoken critics of venture capital culture, cloud computing excess, and hustle-culture mythology. A 12-time Le Mans competitor with a class championship in 2014, DHH is also a bestselling author (REWORK, Remote) and a prolific open-source contributor whose side projects routinely reshape developer culture.
