Gen Digital
The company behind Norton, Avast and LifeLock is stitching cybersecurity to MoneyLion's financial toolkit. Its wager is that the next great consumer platform will sell peace of mind before, during and after something goes wrong.
GGWP
GGWP is a San Francisco-based AI company that builds moderation and community-safety tools for online games, media networks and large fan communities. Founded in 2020 by esports pioneer Dennis 'Thresh' Fong, Crunchyroll co-founder Kun Gao and data scientist Dr. George Ng, its Community Copilot platform uses machine learning to detect toxic behavior across text chat, voice, usernames and Discord, triage player reports, and track long-term player reputation - across 20+ languages. GGWP has moderated tens of billions of messages across 100+ games and works with publishers including Unity, Sony, Krafton and Fandom.
Noam Schwartz
Noam Schwartz is the CEO and co-founder of Alice (formerly ActiveFence), the trust and safety company that quietly built the moderation and adversarial-intelligence pipes behind platforms serving three billion people and seven of the ten largest AI foundation models. He founded the company in 2018 after encountering child sexual abuse material while mapping the internet at his previous startup, and has led it through Series A/B rounds totaling $100M, two acquisitions (Spectrum Labs, Rewire), and a 2026 rebrand to Alice that repositions the company from social-platform moderation to securing generative AI.
Moonshot
Moonshot is a London-founded technology and intelligence company that maps and disrupts online harms - from violent extremism and disinformation to gender-based violence, human trafficking, and harassment of public figures. Founded in 2015 by Vidhya Ramalingam and Ross Frenett, the firm pairs data science, OSINT, and behavioral research with field interventions like its pioneering Redirect Method, which steers people searching for extremist content toward safer alternatives. It works for governments, technology platforms (Google, Facebook, Spotify), and, more recently, sports organizations protecting athletes from online abuse.
TrustLab
TrustLab is a San Mateo-based trust and safety software company building AI-with-human-in-the-loop tools that detect, evaluate, and enforce against harmful online content - from misinformation and hate speech to identity fraud. Founded in 2020 by former trust and safety leaders from Google, YouTube, TikTok, and Reddit, it sells content-safety and AI-oversight products (DetectAI, ModAI, SuperviseAI) to social platforms, marketplaces, and governments, and was selected by the European Commission to independently measure disinformation across major platforms under its Code of Practice.
Tom Siegel
Tom Siegel is the co-founder and CEO of TrustLab, a San Mateo company building independent technology to detect and measure harmful online content. He spent roughly 15 years at Google, where he founded and scaled the company's first Trust & Safety team into the industry's leading abuse-fighting organization, protecting billions of users. In 2020 he left to build the external referee he felt the internet was missing - a third party that measures disinformation, hate speech, and AI-generated harm without a platform's conflict of interest. TrustLab was chosen by the European Commission to run the first independent measurement of disinformation under its Code of Practice.
Vidhya Ramalingam
Vidhya Ramalingam is the founder and CEO of Moonshot, a company that builds technology to interrupt online violence, abuse, and radicalization before it spills into the real world. Trained as an anthropologist who did field research inside white nationalist movements, she now runs digital interventions across more than 25 countries, testifies before legislatures on both sides of the Atlantic, and advises tech platforms and governments on keeping people safe online. Her core conviction is unfashionably simple: people can change, and the same sense of belonging that pulls someone into a hate movement can be used to pull them back out.
