Alan and I met at EF nearly 5 years ago. Without EF, nPlan wouldn’t exist.

Here are some examples of who you’ll meet at EF:
- Dan who is a world-leading scientist in building system architectures for efficient AI. His work has been funded by Eric Schmidt and the UK’s DARPA, ARIA.
- Simone who was the no.1 graduate at the top university in Scotland. She is a 2x national champion in tennis, and has founded 2 startups including one in precision oncology.
- Jakob who did AI research at Carnegie Mellon with Interpol. He is a top KU Leuven student in CS, and has built AI tools for legal document processing.
- Sima who is a patented PhD Audio AI researcher from Cornell University. She led both the AI financial crime team at HSBC and Deliveroo’s AI ad platform.
- Arushi who built a CRM company to $80K MRR in college and deployed it across 12 firms.
- Sanskar who is an open source pioneer who created Robyn (3M+ installs).
- Jay who led structural engineering for 6 of the world’s highest-resolution hyperspectral satellites at Pixxel. While at BITS Pilani, he won the NASA Rover Challenge and published research on satellite mechanisms.
At EF, I met my ideal cofounder, who had a complementary skill set and experience and shared the same vision. Since then, we’ve grown into a team of 100+ people, have started deploying our product across warehousing sites, and are now looking at international markets. EF was where it all began for us.
