Rebecka Zavaleta
Rebecka Zavaleta is the co-founder and CEO of Paismo, an HR-tech and people-automation platform built for small and mid-sized businesses in emerging markets and pitched as 'made in Pakistan, for the world.' Before Paismo she spent more than a decade as a product and design leader whose work touched Google, TikTok and Meta, and she founded First Milli, a first-generation wealth-building education platform recognized by NextAdvisor in partnership with Time. A University of Pennsylvania political-science graduate who has traveled to dozens of countries and works across several languages, she blends product craft, financial literacy and a builder's stubbornness about fixing systems that 'do not exist or are not streamlined.'
Tomer London
Tomer London is the co-founder and Chief Product Officer of Gusto, a $9.5 billion payroll and HR platform serving 400,000+ small businesses across the United States. Born and raised in Haifa, Israel, where his father ran a clothing store for over 35 years, Tomer taught himself Visual Basic at age 12 to build inventory software for the family business — a founding instinct that never left him. After earning his B.S. from the Technion and pursuing graduate studies at Stanford, he co-founded Gusto (originally ZenPayroll) in 2011 with Josh Reeves and Eddie Kim, going through Y Combinator and building the company into one of the most beloved B2B products in Silicon Valley, known for its unusually high NPS scores and the philosophy that payroll software should feel like a celebration, not a chore.
