Alec Miloslavsky is the Founder and CEO of EIS Ltd (EIS Group), a San Francisco-based cloud-native digital insurance platform serving major insurers including Aflac, Allstate, Liberty Mutual, and Nationwide. Born in Ukraine and relocating to the US at age 17, he co-founded Genesys Telecommunications in 1990 - a contact center technology company he helped grow to a $1.9 billion acquisition by Alcatel-Lucent. He then co-founded Exigen Services, growing it past $70M in revenue, before pivoting to insurance tech by founding EIS Group in 2008. Under his leadership, EIS has raised over $224M in funding and built a modular, API-first core platform used across five insurance segments globally.
Dan Woods is the Founder and CEO of Socotra, the AI-native cloud-native insurance core platform he built from scratch starting in 2014. A Stanford AI researcher and former Palantir engineer (employee #20), he left the data-intelligence world to fix insurance technology - an industry he describes as 'a decade behind banking.' Under his leadership, Socotra has raised $87M+ in total funding including a $50M Series C led by Insight Partners, and powers carriers and insurtech MGAs who can now launch insurance products in weeks instead of years.
Samad Wahedi is the Founder and CEO of Glow, a San Francisco-based insurtech company reimagining workers' compensation and small business insurance. After a 25-year career building and selling technology companies - from InsWeb's IPO to selling DirectQuality in 2007 - Wahedi launched Glow in 2018 when he saw family members trapped by outdated, overpriced insurance solutions. Glow has since raised $41.5M in total funding, grown to 280 employees, and built a platform that syncs directly with payroll to deliver concierge-level insurance coverage at 20%+ savings for small businesses across the U.S.
