Join us on June 27 for FN Fund’s virtual Demo Day.
Curated for investors, industry leaders, and influential stakeholders, this exclusive event will showcase two startups: Gybe, a digital platform for frontline works, and Scalestack, an artificial intelligence platform for sales operations.
Gybe is on a mission to empower millions of frontline workers by reimagining how to build, cost and scale digital work-day tools. Its founder, Matias Troccoli is a repeat entrepreneur and technologist. His previous endeavor, NEXT Biometrics, where he served as chief technology officer, successfully completed its IPO in 2015.
Scalestack’s disruptive platform empowers businesses to scale their operations seamlessly, leveraging automation and advanced analytics to drive efficiency and growth. Scalestack Founder and CEO Elio Narciso has successfully co-founded and exited two tech startups with deals valued at over $80 million. His career also includes years designing and launching go-to-market initiatives for mid to late-stage enterprise tech startups with Amazon AWS.
Mimoto provides a unique security compliance solution that matches ML-generated verified profiles with specific humans, detecting account usage anomalies and policy deviations. Mimoto bridges the critical gap between companies’ security policies and employees’ actions, addressing protocol violations that risk data extraction or operational disruptions. Led by founder and GTM expert Kris Bondi, Mimoto enables unprecedented visibility into internal operations.
FN Fund Demo Day is a platform for collaboration and investment, connecting forward-thinking entrepreneurs like Matias and Elio with accredited investors seeking new opportunities. These events are designed to showcase pioneering startup founders, highlight innovative technology, and drive investment.
