Brad Schneider
Brad Schneider is the founder and CEO of Nomad Data, a New York based AI platform that helps teams find, buy, and read the data hidden inside documents and external vendors. An MIT-trained engineer turned hedge fund investor (Tiger Management, Jericho Capital) and CFA charterholder, he spent a decade using alternative data to beat markets before deciding the harder problem was simply finding the right data in the first place. Nomad Data lets users describe what they need in plain English and routes them to answers, not raw spreadsheets, with products spanning data discovery, a Doc Chat engine for unstructured text, and vendor relationship management for consultancies, insurers, and asset managers.
Ashesh Jain
Ashesh Jain is the co-founder and CEO of Coram AI, a Sunnyvale-based startup turning ordinary IP security cameras into AI-powered intelligence endpoints. A Cornell PhD and IIT Delhi alumnus, Jain spent years at the frontier of autonomous vehicles - building perception systems at Zoox and leading Lyft's self-driving program as Head of Autonomy - before pivoting that expertise into reimagining physical security. His research work includes Brain4Cars (a car that predicts driver errors before they happen) and the award-winning Structural-RNN paper (CVPR 2016 Best Student Paper), which has over 1,600 citations. Coram AI raised a $13.8M Series A in January 2025 led by Battery Ventures, and its platform now monitors thousands of cameras across schools, hospitals, warehouses, and manufacturing sites across the U.S.
