Taking the Founder's Pledge was a no-brainer for my cofounder and me. It provides a simple but rigorous way to crystallize our commitment to giving back in line with the shared values of our company.
Gideon is co-founder and CTO of Welkin Health, a healthcare software company whose mission is to leverage the power of human relationships to help people living with chronic disease become healthier and happier. Welkin raised an $8M Series A led by Thrive Capital in early 2017.
Gideon views the opportunity to found a company as a privilege that he is increasingly thankful for over time. He is especially passionate about creating a company culture that expresses and preserves the shared values of the Welkin team. Gideon is a Bay Area native who loves his cats and is a bigger fan of professional sports than anybody else he knows in software.
