Anjali Sardana
Anjali Sardana is the 24-year-old founder and CEO of Pronto, a Bengaluru-based instant home-services startup that brings household help - sweeping, mopping, dishwashing, laundry - to a customer's door in about ten minutes. A Georgetown biology graduate and former investor at Bain Capital and 8VC, she launched Pronto in 2025 and scaled it from roughly 1,000 daily bookings to more than 25,000 within a year, reaching a $200 million valuation with backing from Epiq Capital, General Catalyst, Bain Capital Ventures and Lachy Groom. Her stated mission is less about speed than dignity: giving India's invisible domestic workforce a formal identity, real pay, and standing.
Rachel Seevers
Rachel Seevers is a Strategy Associate in the Office of the CEO at The Nuclear Company, America's nuclear infrastructure platform. A Lexington, Kentucky native, she made her name as a teenage inventor - winning the $50,000 Intel Foundation Young Scientist Award in 2019 for a jellyfish-inspired underwater propulsion device that improved efficiency by up to 37 percent, after earlier building the patent-pending 'Virtual Winglet' aircraft wing over 7,000 hours of work. She studied mechanical engineering and education at Harvard, cut her professional teeth as a Deloitte analyst, and founded STEM programs to bring girls and underserved kids into science. Now she brings that biomimic's eye for efficiency to the hard problem of building nuclear fleets on time and on budget.
