Javier Vidal is the Madrid-born founder and CEO of Moonware, a Los Angeles startup building HALO, the world's first AI-powered Ground Traffic Control platform for airfields. A mechanical engineer trained at Duke who filed his first patent at 15 and became one of Tesla's youngest employees at 19, Vidal cut his teeth on autonomy at Tesla, Uber ATG, and Uber Elevate before setting out to replace the walkie-talkies and whiteboards that still run airport ramps. Moonware has raised roughly $9.3M and deployed HALO with carriers and handlers including British Airways, dnata, Aerocharter, Japan Airlines, and PrimeFlight.
Aaron Sekhri is the co-founder and CEO of Le Walk, a New York startup that turns your headphones into a hands-free local tour guide. After product roles at Uber ATG's self-driving program and TikTok, where he built the mini-program developer platform, Sekhri left the infinite scroll behind to build something that makes people look up. Le Walk delivers GPS-triggered audio tours narrated by real expert guides in 22 languages, and launched publicly in September 2025 with a $4.1 million seed round co-led by Adverb Ventures and Lerer Hippeau.
