Oron Afek
Oron Afek is co-founder and CEO of Vim, a New York-based healthcare technology company that plugs into electronic health record systems to close the gap between insurers and clinicians at the point of care. An Israeli entrepreneur with a background in the IDF's special forces and a summa cum laude degree in law and business from IDC Herzliya, he founded Vim in 2015 with Sequoia Israel as founding investor and has since raised over $100 million from investors including Optum Ventures, Anthem, Walgreens Boots Alliance, and Frist Cressey Ventures.
Mauro Bonomi
Mauro Bonomi is the Founder, Chairman, and CEO of Minerva Networks, a San Jose-based company he built from the ground up into a global IPTV and OTT software platform serving over 300 operators across 6 continents. A Stanford-trained electrical engineer with deep roots in digital video compression, Bonomi spent decades at the intersection of television and the internet before that intersection became a cliche. His platform powers pay-TV services from linear broadcast to AI-driven content discovery, helping carriers modernize without tearing everything down.
Stan Richter
Stan Richter is co-founder and CEO of signageOS, the company that built a unification layer between digital signage hardware and the CMS platforms that run on top of it. Founded in Prague in 2016, signageOS solves the fragmentation problem that has plagued digital signage for decades - dozens of SoC operating systems, dozens of manufacturers, no common API. Richter turned that chaos into a business, bootstrapped growth to global scale, raised $4.2M from Reflex Capital, relocated to San Francisco, won the 2025 Outstanding Individual award at the Global Digital Signage Awards, and in January 2026 unveiled Supra - an encrypted edge-streaming platform that extends the usable life of existing hardware by two to five years.
