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.
David Friedeberg
David Friedeberg is the founder and CEO of OXOMIO, a wellness and supplements company that pairs Earth's purest natural ingredients with biotechnology under the banner 'The Luxury of Wellness.' Son of Mexican surrealist Pedro Friedeberg, David grew up in an artist's household where making something from nothing was a daily ritual, then carried that mindset through a career that spanned fine-art dealing, hospitality operations, and a Harvard MBA before launching OXOMIO in 2017. He splits his life between San Miguel de Allende, Mexico and Austin, Texas, and runs his days by the Japanese principle of kenkou dai-ichi - health above everything else.
Sam Schatz
Sam Schatz is the CEO and co-founder of Biohm Technologies, a Cleveland-based microbiome company betting that the future of gut health lives in fungi, not just bacteria. After spending a decade as AeroFarms' first employee scaling vertical farming from a startup into a global leader, he pivoted to the gut, turning a direct-to-consumer wellness brand into a B2B ingredients and data company built on a proprietary dataset of bacterial and fungal gut populations. He pairs data science with biology, raised a $4.52M Series B in 2025, and shipped Mycohsa, a probiotic blend clinically shown to break down digestive biofilms. Off the clock he is an Adirondack 46er and open-water swimmer.
