Punit Singh Soni is the founder and CEO of Suki, the ambient clinical intelligence platform that lets doctors spend more time with patients and less time typing into electronic health records. A product veteran who helped ship the Moto X and rebuild Flipkart's consumer experience, Soni founded Suki in 2017 on a single thesis - 'AI is the new UI' - before that phrase became a conference staple. Suki now serves 350+ health systems across the US, has raised $255 million in total funding, and helps clinicians complete notes 72% faster. Soni was educated at NIT Kurukshetra, the University of Wyoming, and Wharton, and has lived at the intersection of big tech, emerging markets, and healthcare for over two decades.
Paul Kellenberger is the CEO and President of zSpace, Inc., a San Jose-based company that pioneered display-based augmented and virtual reality for education. Rather than strapping headsets onto students, zSpace built a 24-inch 3D screen with head-tracking and a haptic stylus - no goggles required. Under Kellenberger's leadership, zSpace expanded from zero revenue in career technical education to 50% of its pipeline in that segment, served over 2,400 U.S. schools, and took the company public on Nasdaq in December 2024 under ticker ZSPC. With more than 70 patents, research partnerships with NC State showing 40% better retention rates, and recent acquisitions of BlocksCAD and Second Avenue Learning, Kellenberger is pushing immersive learning into the mainstream of American education.
Vishal Gauri is the CEO of Seclore, a data-centric security company protecting enterprise information in the AI era. A scientist-turned-entrepreneur with 18 patents and a PhD from Ohio State, he built his career from General Electric labs to Silicon Valley boardrooms, co-founded a venture capital fund (IvyCap Ventures), and now leads a $59.5M-revenue company that guards sensitive data as it flows across organizations, borders, and AI systems.
Pramod Sharma is the Founder and CEO of Napkin AI, a generative-AI platform that converts plain text into editable business visuals - diagrams, flowcharts, infographics, and charts - in seconds. A farmer's son from Rajasthan who cracked IIT Delhi on self-study, he went on to earn a Master's from Stanford, architect Google Books' scanning machines, and then co-found Osmo, the award-winning educational-gaming company sold to Byju's for $120 million in 2019. In 2021 he and co-founder Jerome Scholler turned their frustration with corporate slide decks into Napkin AI, which emerged from stealth in August 2024 with $10 million in seed funding from Accel and CRV.
