Portnox
Portnox is a cloud-native access control company that unifies Network Access Control (NAC), RADIUS, TACACS+, and passwordless conditional access for applications into a single zero-trust platform. Founded in 2007 by a team from the Israeli Air Force and now headquartered in Austin, Texas, Portnox removes the appliances, VMs, and specialized staff that traditional NAC requires, letting organizations authenticate users and devices, assess endpoint risk, and enforce compliance across wired, wireless, and remote networks from the cloud. It serves more than 1,000 organizations across healthcare, finance, manufacturing, and technology.
Biju Ashokan
Biju Ashokan is the co-founder and CEO of Radius, a San Francisco-based AI-native operating system for real estate brokers and agents. A Carnegie Mellon-trained engineer who started his first real estate startup in India, Biju built Radius (originally Agentdesks) into an 85,000-strong agent community before charging a single dollar for access - then turned that captive audience into a $3.1M revenue business. Backed by Pete Flint (Trulia founder), Spencer Rascoff (Zillow co-founder), and AXA Venture Partners, Radius has raised $19.55M+ total and won back-to-back Inman Proptech Entrepreneur of the Year awards. The company's AI assistant 'Mel' and suite of brokerage tools are reshaping how independent agents run their businesses.
