Felix George

Felix George

I am a Research Software Engineer at the IBM Research Lab in India, specializing in building high-performance, energy-efficient cloud infrastructure and scale-out systems. Throughout my career in the hybrid cloud domain, I have focused on optimizing systems for energy efficiency, most notably contributing as a developer to PEAKS, a specialized Kubernetes scheduler designed for energy-aware workload orchestration. My current research and development focus has evolved toward architecting next-generation Agentic systems and intelligent observability platforms operating at enterprise scale. In this role, I design and implement automated systems capable of ingesting and analyzing terabytes of telemetry and observability data in real time. By fusing autonomous AI agents with advanced monitoring frameworks, my work helps detect anomalies, predict system bottlenecks, and ensure the robust health, reliability, and continuous performance of complex distributed applications. Driven by a passion for intersectional research across systems engineering, cloud computing, and applied artificial intelligence, I continually seek to create scalable, intelligent solutions that simplify infrastructure management and pave the way for greener, more autonomous cloud environments.

Michael Fox

Michael Fox

Michael is the co-founder of Fable, a food company transforming humble mushrooms into extraordinary whole food, center of plate proteins — starting with pulled shiitake and shiitake-infused meat blends. Since launching, Fable has grown from a single retail product into a business spanning foodservice and retail partnerships across Australia, the UK, Europe and North America.

The idea for Fable took root while Michael was living on a 41-acre property, growing much of his own food and eating a minimally processed, whole-foods diet. That firsthand experience of what real, simple food could taste like made him want to bring the same quality and integrity to develop delicious, mainstream, whole food, mushroom based proteins.

2 years ago Michael moved from Australia to the US to lead the companies expansion into North America. He lives in Brooklyn, NY with his two children.
