Ramin Ettehad is a Silicon Valley-raised entrepreneur who co-founded Oomnitza in 2012 alongside Arthur Lozinski and Trent Seed, building it into a leading Enterprise Technology Management platform that has raised $37M and serves organizations across financial services, healthcare, retail, manufacturing, and more. As Co-Founder with responsibilities spanning marketing and revenue, he brings a rare combination of hands-on sales intelligence, product intuition, and brand evangelism to the challenge of modernizing how enterprises manage their entire IT estate from a single pane of glass.
Steli Efti is the co-founder and CEO of Close.com, a bootstrapped CRM platform generating $40M+ ARR that he built by accident - he was running an outsourced sales agency for 200+ startups when he realized the internal software he built to manage it all was the actual product. A high-school dropout from Germany with Greek immigrant parents, he moved to Silicon Valley on a one-way ticket, got rejected by Y Combinator 6 times before being accepted, and has since become one of the most respected voices in startup sales - known for the 48-email follow-up that landed an investor, a no-BS philosophy, and a side podcast about philosophy, literature, and inner life that has nothing to do with business.
