Christopher Gaeta
Christopher Gaeta is the founder and CEO of InSite Health, a venture-backed behavioral health company building what he calls a K-12 wellness operating system: one integrated platform that bundles mental health screenings, on-site therapy and psychiatric care for school districts that were otherwise stitching together six or more separate vendors. A 2023 Swarthmore College graduate and former co-captain of the golf team, he previously ran the campus-wellness company Grapefruit to 250,000 patients and worked as a healthcare venture investor before turning operator. Business Insider named him a top Gen Z venture capitalist, and he aims to build the nation's largest K-12 wellness platform by 2030.
Jake Sussman
Jake Sussman is the cofounder and CEO of Marble Health, a virtual behavioral health company that embeds inside American schools to get anxious, depressed and overwhelmed kids into group therapy within days rather than months. He helped build Headway into a mental-health unicorn, then walked away to teach fifth-grade English at a Brooklyn charter school, where one overstretched counselor for hundreds of students convinced him the youth side of the system was broken. In 2023 he founded Marble with fellow Headway alum Dan Ross, betting that insurance-funded virtual group therapy, routed through school counselors, could scale care without waitlists. By late 2025 Marble had run more than 15,000 sessions and raised a $15.5M Series A led by Costanoa Ventures.
