Jeremy Horowitz
Jeremy Horowitz is the CEO and co-founder of Hume Supernatural, a San Diego based clean personal care brand best known for its microbiome-supporting, plant-and-probiotic deodorant. A former corporate lawyer who spent 16 years inside the San Diego Padres and later ran investments at Selby Venture Partners, he traded contracts and box seats for prebiotics and skin barriers, launching Hume digitally in March 2020. Under his lead the brand became the fastest-growing natural deodorant in the natural retail channel, landing in Whole Foods, Sprouts and CVS and drawing investors including Lupita Nyong'o and Alex Morgan.
Emily Stein
Emily Stein is a microbiologist turned founder and CEO of Primal Health, the Minneapolis life-sciences company behind Daily Dental Care for people and TEEF for Life for pets. Trained at UC Berkeley and Stanford, she spent more than a decade building SMMRT (Selective Microbial Metabolism Regulation Technology), a 'carrot and stick' approach that starves harmful mouth bacteria and feeds the helpful ones instead of nuking everything. Holder of 18 patents and a five-time startup founder, Stein pivoted from humans to dogs when dentists balked, a move she says saved the company. Her stated goal: to be in every mouth at least once a day.
