Qiyun Cai
Qiyun Cai is the co-founder and CEO of Fintary, an AI-powered financial operations platform that automates commission processing for insurance agencies and carriers. A Harvard MBA and former insurance-brokerage founder (Amplify Life), she built Fintary after years of reconciling commissions by hand, reframing a back-office headache as a growth engine. Fintary has raised $12.8M, including a $10M Series A led by Infinity Ventures, and processes over $500M in annual commissions for 50+ insurance organizations.
Tript Singh Lamba
Tript Singh Lamba is the founder and CEO of ProductNow, an AI-native operating system for product teams that he built largely as a solo developer (with one intern) before raising a $6M seed round led by Sierra Ventures in July 2025. Over two decades he built flagship platforms at Microsoft, Google, and Expedia - helping launch Bing and the early core of Microsoft Messenger and Azure, co-founding Google's Ads AI personalization team, leading YouTube Ads through hypergrowth, and serving as SVP of Consumer Product at Expedia. His thesis: with AI accelerating engineering, the real bottleneck is no longer code but turning strategy into execution.
