Guest Bio
Born in Massachusetts, Sam Nagar is a serial entrepreneur who graduated from USC in 2011 with a degree in computer engineering. After working at Microsoft as a software engineer for several years, he left to start his first company Pixeom, where he pioneered software for edge compute orchestration.

In 2024 he left Siemens to begin his second startup Terragrit, known as the "Canva" for simulation - a collaborative, no-code virtualization platform for validating pilots in a physical space - which has also achieved millions in revenue, and a recent $25M seed round from top VCs.
