Rian Mc Donnell
Rian Mc Donnell is the founder and CEO of FloVision Solutions, an AI company putting cameras and sensors on meat-processing lines so beef and poultry plants can see exactly where yield and quality slip away. He grew up around beef processing in rural Ireland, studied mechanical and manufacturing engineering at Trinity College Dublin (with a year at UC Berkeley), and built the company out of a Trinity student project before moving it to the United States via Notre Dame's ESTEEM program and SOSV's IndieBio. Now headquartered in South Bend, Indiana, FloVision has analyzed more than 23 million kilograms of food and raised an $8.7M Series A led by Insight Partners in 2025.

Eoghan McCabe
Eoghan McCabe is an Irish technology entrepreneur born in Dublin in 1984, best known as the co-founder and CEO of Intercom — the AI-first customer service platform he founded in 2011 alongside Des Traynor, Ciaran Lee, and David Barrett. After building Intercom into a $1.3B+ unicorn over its first decade, McCabe stepped down as CEO in 2020 due to a neurological autoimmune disorder, then dramatically returned in October 2022, just weeks before ChatGPT launched. Within six weeks he had a prototype of Fin, Intercom's AI agent, and proceeded to cut roughly 40% of staff and redirect the entire company toward AI — a bet that paid off: Intercom hit an estimated $343M in revenue in 2024 (+25% YoY), raised $125M from Kleiner Perkins and $250M in debt from Hercules Capital (March 2026), and recorded its largest-ever quarter by net new ARR in Q1 FY2026.
