Larry Gadea is the founder and CEO of Envoy, the San Francisco-based workplace platform that turned the humble office sign-in book into a $1.4 billion unicorn. A Romanian refugee who was recruited by Google at 17, created Twitter's 'Murder' infrastructure tool as one of its first 50 employees, and spotted a market gap nobody else noticed: enterprise software had completely ignored the physical office. From smuggled out of communist Romania to building the software that runs 14,000+ workplaces in 70 countries, Gadea's story is one of relentless pattern recognition, resilience, and the stubborn conviction that the office deserves the same engineering love as everything else in tech.
Jason Chavez is the CEO and founder of Xyicon, a Napa, California-based SaaS company whose flagship platform SpaceRunner turns static PDF floor plans and spreadsheet data into interactive, visual asset management workspaces. Chavez started in technology as a field technician, built ComNet Technology in 2000 as an IT professional-services firm, and pivoted it into Xyicon in 2015 after growing frustrated with facility management software too complex for the people actually meant to use it. Under his leadership, Xyicon has grown to roughly 54 employees, landed major healthcare and construction clients, and built a platform claiming 95% productivity gains and 15% procurement cost reductions for its users.
