It gets into our waterways, the air we breathe and there is nothing to stop it! The Tyre Collective spearheads the capture and monitoring of tyre wear, accelerating the shift towards true zero-emission mobility.

OAK Network digitally transforms the way businesses manage and control their energy consumption. Providing businesses with a simple monitoring dashboard, filled with actionable recommendations and preemptive suggestions to actively reduce their wastage and take control of their consumption, effortlessly. Track your consumption, be in control and reduce your carbon footprint. Better for the planet, better for you. 🌍 Our focus is entirely on the needs of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). While large companies have the resources to find ways to improve their energy efficiency, most SMEs do not. In fact, most SMEs receive just one piece of data about their energy consumption – their bill – and it provides zero insight into how they are using energy. Learn more: www.oak-network.com

TAVERNA opened in April 2018 and is located in downtown Palo Alto on a quaint neighborhood corner. Founded by two longtime friends, Thanasis Pashalidis and Hakan Bala, TAVERNA blends rustic origins with modern refinement. Chef William Roberts serves both comforting interpretations of classic dishes and daring new ventures into the uncharted territories of Hellenic dining. TAVERNAs interior, designed by Chris Irvine, reflects the old-world charm and nostalgic sentiments of Greece, where Thanasis Pashalidis is well seasoned in exploring the tastes and feelings of the everyday taverna. Enjoy the warmth and hospitality of the old-world when we cook for you as part of our family. In June 2019, TAVERNA expanded its offerings with the acquisition of its neighboring space. TAVERNA now boasts a larger kitchen, two dining rooms and the versatility to adapt to any necessary event function whether in a group setting or with private dining.

Neuron Factorys mission is to build an agentic construction intelligence platform powered by a proprietary knowledge graph — capturing, connecting, and reasoning across the full spectrum of construction project data, starting with preconstruction. Where existing tools store documents in isolation, Neuron Factory extracts entities, relationships, and context from every file type a GC touches — tender specs, drawings, RFQs, emails, BOQs, SOWs, schedules — and assembles them into a structured, queryable graph. That graph becomes the intelligence substrate that powers AI agents, answers estimator questions with source citations, flags conflicts, and enables cross-project benchmarking at a scale no team of humans could manually achieve. Neuron Factory was founded by Zaid Kahn (former Head of AI Infrastructure at Microsoft) and Salil Pandit (former senior engineer at Google and Waymo). Our team brings experience from Autodesk, Procore, Google, Microsoft, Apple, IBM, Salesforce and BAE Systems, and our advisory board spans construction leadership (Cordeel Group, AECOM) and world-class AI expertise — including the leader of Microsoft Researchs lab, alongside senior figures from Waymo and Shopify.
