Inspiren was born from a unique convergence of military precision and clinical compassion. Founder Michael Wang, a former Green Beret turned cardiothoracic nurse, recognized that senior living communities were struggling with fragmented systems that failed to protect their most vulnerable residents. He saw falls go undetected, care plans built on guesswork rather than data, and staff overwhelmed by disconnected tools. So in 2016, he built a different kind of healthcare technology company - one led by nurses and rooted in the reality of frontline care. Today, Inspiren has grown into the most complete AI-powered ecosystem in senior living. The company's flagship innovation, AUGi (Augmented Intelligence), serves as a cognitive patient care assistant that uses computer vision and hybrid sensing to analyze interactions, monitor environmental factors, and provide unprecedented insights into resident safety. By unifying emergency call systems, care planning, staff efficiency tools, and fall prevention into one integrated platform, Inspiren enables care teams to act before adverse events occur. The results speak for themselves: Inspiren-enabled communities report 68% fewer falls, 75% faster response times, and 22% increased occupancy.

In 2013, co-founders Andrew Rubin and PJ Kirner started Illumio with a simple but powerful insight: breaches are inevitable. As cloud computing, hybrid IT environments, and now GenAI transformed the IT landscape, they realized that conventional security tools like firewalls, EDRs, and SIEMs were failing. These tools gave only surface-level visibility into critical traffic flows and even less control over threats that spread through these pathways. Rather than trying and failing to prevent every cyberattack, they founded Illumio to simplify microsegmentation and help organizations reduce the impact of inevitable breaches through effective containment. Today, Illumio stands as the world leader in breach containment, providing the first and only platform built specifically for this purpose. Powered by an AI security graph, Illumio's platform identifies and contains threats across hybrid, multi-cloud environments before attacks can spread and become disasters. The company enables Zero Trust journeys for organizations globally, protecting critical applications, workloads, and assets. Illumio's approach has earned recognition as a Leader in the Forrester Wave for Microsegmentation and a Customers' Choice in the 2026 Gartner Peer Insights for Network Security Microsegmentation, proving that while breaches may be inevitable, disasters are optional.
