Sameer Al-Sakran
Sameer Al-Sakran is the co-founder and CEO of Metabase, the open-source business intelligence tool that grew into an 8-figure ARR company used by more than 70,000 organizations. He spent four years building Metabase without charging a dollar, then turned it into a product-led growth case study by burying a single call-to-action deep in the admin panel and letting the software sell itself. A career machine-learning and data person, he worked in data science, engineering, and venture before deciding the world needed a simpler way to ask a database a question.
Sigma
Sigma is a cloud-native analytics and business intelligence company that lets anyone explore live data from cloud warehouses like Snowflake, Databricks and BigQuery through a familiar spreadsheet-style interface - no SQL required. Now pivoting into 'agentic analytics,' Sigma layers no-code AI agents on top of governed warehouse data so business teams can ask questions, build apps and trigger actions directly against the data, with security and governance intact.
