Sam Ryan
Sam Ryan is the co-founder and CEO of Zeelo, a smart bus platform that runs shuttle routes for frontline workers and independent schools across the UK and US. He founded the company in 2016 with Barney Williams and Dani Ruiz after selling their student ride-share app JumpIn to Addison Lee, and has since grown Zeelo into a business moving roughly 150,000 riders a month with a fleet of more than 10,000 vehicles.
Shaurya Saluja
Shaurya Saluja is the co-founder and CEO of Fleet, a San Francisco commuter-benefits platform he spun out of research at Stanford in 2018. He turned a Bay Area gripe - the Big Tech shuttle buses crowding the freeways - into a company that hands the commuting superpowers of giant employers to companies of any size. Fleet automates pre-tax transit benefits, employer subsidies, government grants, and rewards across every mode of transport, and raised over $5 million led by Congruent Ventures. A Stanford computer scientist and data analyst, Saluja brought peer-to-peer carsharing to Eastern Europe and launched demand-responsive carpooling in the Bay Area before Fleet, and was named to the Association for Commuter Transportation's 2023 40 Under 40.
Saurav Kumar
Saurav Kumar is the founder and CEO of Euler Motors, a New Delhi commercial-EV maker building electric three- and four-wheelers for India's last-mile logistics. A computer-vision engineer trained at Delhi College of Engineering and Cornell, he worked on driverless-car research at INRIA in France, co-founded Cube26 (acquired by Paytm), then started Euler in 2018 on a contrarian thesis: beat diesel on performance, not just price. His flagship HiLoad EV is pitched as India's most powerful electric three-wheeler, and the company has raised hundreds of millions across rounds led by investors including Hero MotoCorp and British International Investment.
