Automating data generation to advance data privacy.

For over a decade, Ian has worked to advance the use of data by removing barriers impeding teams from answering their most important questions. As an early member of the commercial division at Palantir Technologies, he led teams solving data problems in industries ranging from financial services to the media. At Tableau, he continued to focus on analytics, driving the vision around statistics and the calculation language. As a founder of Tonic, Ian is directing his energies toward synthetic data generation to break down traditional data silos, protect customer privacy, and drive analytic efficiency.

Since completing his PhD in Physics at Georgia Tech, Adam has committed himself to furthering the work of others through the programs he develops. At Microsoft and Kabbage, he handled UI design and determined new features to anticipate customer needs. At Tableau, he developed the platform’s analytics/calculation engine. He also founded IOT Pipe, an open source project for connecting devices to the web. The obstacles he encountered in working with data as a developer motivate him to deliver a solution that will transform the work of fellow developers, analysts, and program users alike.

Throughout his career in data analytics, Karl has been inspired by the impact of hard work and powerful tooling. At Palantir, he was integral to the commercial leadership team, heading several of their early commercial enterprise engagements. As Head of Deployments at Segovia, he helped NGOs reach people in need in some of the most remote parts of the world. His vision in founding Tonic is to promote that win-win philosophy across all industries by advocating for the privacy of individuals while enabling companies to do their best work.
