Jane Chen
Jane Chen is the founder and CEO of Letterly, an AI-assisted, human-in-the-loop writing platform that has helped more than 3,000 students across 30 states and seven countries write, revise, and publish their own work. A New York-born daughter of Chinese immigrants who returned from Shanghai unable to speak English, she studied history at Harvard, spent a decade on Wall Street as an investment banker and hedge fund analyst, then walked away from finance to rebuild how kids learn to write - starting with 30 students at a community center and growing into a seed-funded company with nearly 13,000 published student articles.
Kerry Song
Kerry Song is the founder and CEO of Abbot's (formerly Abbot's Butcher), a Costa Mesa, California plant-based meat company she launched in 2017. A Princeton economics graduate who once worked in finance at Morgan Stanley and Citigroup and spent five years as a brand strategist for Tony Robbins, she built Abbot's around a strict clean-label promise: no gluten, no soy, no gums, no synthetic flavors, no preservatives. The brand became the only Whole30 Approved plant-based meat and grew from a Venice farmers-market table into a category leader stocked in thousands of retailers including Sprouts, Publix and Target.
