David Kuraguntla Built Alio by Learning When to Leave the First Idea Behind
A planned surgical career became a decade-long lesson in risk, reinvention and patient-centered product design. The result is Alio - and a founder’s playbook built around fast decisions, aligned incentives and the discipline to change course.
Amir Reuveny
The Wesper founder spent years making electronics bend. Then he built a company around a harder discipline: making complex technology disappear into an ordinary routine.
AT Nakanishi
AT Nakanishi (Atsushi Nakanishi) is the founder and CEO of Triple W, the company behind DFree, the world's first personal wearable ultrasound sensor that predicts toilet timing. He launched the company in 2015 with high school and college friends, took it from Tokyo to Berkeley, and steered it to a Best of CES award and Series D funding. A self-described non-engineer who built a hardware company from zero, Nakanishi blends business pragmatism with a stubborn focus on solving an unglamorous, very human problem.
Harry DiFrancesco
Harry DiFrancesco is the CEO and co-founder of Carda Health, a New York-based virtual care company rebuilding heart and lung rehabilitation for the home. A philosopher turned coder turned operator, he taught with Teach For America, helped found a school, did business operations at Stripe, and started Carda in 2020 after caring for a parent who could not access prescribed recovery care. He blends human clinicians with AI to remove friction from care delivery, and runs ultramarathons and climbs mountains in his spare time.
Dave Icke
Dave Icke is the CEO of Medisafe, the medication engagement platform that helps more than ten million patients stay on their treatments.

In 2025 he took the reins at Medisafe from founder Omri Shor to scale medication engagement across the global pharmaceutical ecosystem.
Nichole Garcia
Nichole Garcia is Co-Founder and President of OrthoFX, the doctor-delivered clear aligner startup she built with two former Invisalign executives.
