Amit Bhaduri

CTO

Agshift,

Dr. Amit Bhaduri is the Chief Technology Officer at AgShift, an Agri-tech startup in the midst

of bringing disruption to the quality inspection of fresh food using Artificial Intelligence.

Prior to joining AgShift, he was a tech lead at Intel leading the development of simulation-

based virtual platforms for all of Intel’s silicon engineering teams in order to shorten the

product lifecycle and reduce the time to market. He was also one of the main developers

for Intel's on-chip noise simulator and the prime lead for building the virtual platform for

the new product initiative in Intel's Platform Architecture group. He has over 20 years of

Cincinnati in 2005 and worked at Motorola and TCS back in India between 1997 and 2000.

Thomas Bilotta

CEO Founder

Assured Wireless Corp

Principal, founder, consultant, you name it and Tom Bilotta’s done it. Tom clings to his serial entrepreneurial roots,

bridging the gap between business strategy and technology. Tom received his start in the aerospace industry, performing

advanced signal and image analysis for the detection and recognition of critical threats in the harshest of signal

environments. He then applied these techniques to develop advanced digital communications techniques and rapidly

took theoretical techniques to commercial products. Advancing this at Linkabit, the world’s pioneer in digital

communications, he then entered the entrepreneurial domain.

Tom served in high-level positions at eight high-tech startups and coordinated three successful exits, a cumulative raise

of $170 million. As a key player in multiple tech organizations – Nextivity, TurboNet Communications, Rainbow Network

Systems, and Malibu Networks – Tom upped the value of new companies 15-30 times their initial worth in one to three

years. All of these companies have a proven track record of rapid commercialization of advanced technologies. These

companies have developed the best of breed commercial products while creating significant value. Their successes were

enabled through the advanced intellectual property developed by Tom, thus keeping these organizations far ahead of any

competitive threats.

Tom has always been fascinated by connectivity solutions, from the product and business development side as evidenced

by the seven communications and network-related patents he wrote. He is now advancing the technologies of mission

critical communications and 5G technologies with a powerful team at Assured Wireless.

Tom has established himself as an expert in the field, having publications in multiple wireless and entrepreneurship

journals. He holds an MBA in entrepreneurship from San Diego State University, post-graduate electrical engineering

studies from Carnegie Mellon University and the University of California, Irvine, and a bachelor’s degree in electrical

engineering from Carnegie Mellon University.

Rajesh Mishra

Founder, President, and CTO

Parallel Wireless

Rajesh Mishra is a visionary who, together with the other Parallel Wireless, Inc.’s founders, accurately

identified the need for easy to deploy, resilient and cost effective network architectures that would

overcome many of the legacy technical challenges associated with wireless communications — the foundation

upon which Parallel Wireless was born. Rajesh co-founded the company after 22+ years of reimagining the

wireless, wireline, and cable industry and he leads the technology behind the Parallel Wireless’ solutions. As

one of the industry’s pioneers in convergence technologies, he led the development of next-gen VoLTE and

3G/4G Femtocell convergence servers at Tatara, led transformation of first commercial softswitch into a

Wireless MSC product at Bell Labs/Lucent, reimagined cable industry leading IMS servers at Cedarpoint, and

led a commercial mobile ad hoc networks (MANETS) development at Powerwave Cognition.

Rajesh’s background also includes designing an enterprise Unified Communications System (Whaleback);

developing a next-generation soft switch (Excel Switching). At the beginning of his career, Rajesh was

involved in early development of analog and digital wireless base stations at Steinbrecher/Tellabs and Hughes

Network Systems.

Mr. Mishra has been awarded many industry awards, among them: Lucent Technologies/ Bell Lab Distinguished

member award, IEEE paper presentation awards. He also has experience as a spokesperson with industry and

business press, analysts and as a presenter at industry conferences.

He has a portfolio of 65+ US and international patents pending and issued. Rajesh holds a BS in Computer

Science from IIT.
