Rajiv Chaitanya is an applied machine learning researcher who enjoys taking models out of papers and stress-testing them against reality. His work focuses on reinforcement learning, financial ML, and reproducible ML systems, with a particular interest in understanding where sophisticated methods actually help, and more importantly, where they quietly fail.

He builds end-to-end learning pipelines that account for real-world constraints such as risk, non-stationarity, and system trade-offs, rather than optimizing purely for benchmark performance. Rajiv is especially interested in failure modes, design decisions, and lessons learned when ML systems meet noisy, imperfect data.

Tara Saxon is a Certified Money Coach, keynote speaker, and founder of The Intentional Wealth Co., where she helps high-achieving women build deep, grounded confidence with money - not just on paper, but in real life, under pressure, and at moments that truly matter.

Her work sits at the intersection of money psychology, decision-making, and identity. Tara is known for translating complex financial concepts into clear, human conversations that leave women feeling empowered rather than overwhelmed. She brings both commercial acumen and compassion to the room, blending practical strategy with insight into the emotional and intergenerational patterns that quietly shape our financial choices.

With a background spanning banking, project finance, and equities research, Tara understands high-stakes environments and big numbers. But it’s her ability to name what women aren’t taught about money - self-trust, internal permission, and the cost of chronic self-doubt - that resonates most deeply with audiences.

Tara speaks to organisations, conferences, and leadership audiences who want more than surface-level motivation. Her sessions spark reflection, challenge inherited beliefs, and give participants practical ways to make confident decisions without burning out, shrinking back, or second-guessing themselves.

Her signature message is simple and powerful: money isn’t just math - it’s mindset, memory, and identity. And when women change the way they relate to money, they change the way they lead their lives.

Hriday Gabhawalla is a rising professional in business process solutions, currently working at Deloitte in India, where he leverages his expertise to drive efficiency and innovation in operational workflows. Holding a commerce background from Narsee Monjee College of Commerce & Economics and pursuing the globally recognized ACCA qualification, Hriday combines academic excellence with hands-on industry experience.
He is also the creator of the LinkedIn newsletter The Automated Advantage, where he delivers weekly insights on practical frameworks for harnessing AI to transform business processes.
His passion for rebuilding workflows isn't just theoretical. While still a student, he was struck by how most accounting software failed to enforce fundamental financial controls, forcing users into manual bypasses. He realized this "control gap" was an architecture problem.
This led him to build "ProAcc," a full-stack MVP to prove that robust, auditable controls—like Segregation of Duties—can be embedded directly into a modern web app. For the project, he used Next.js 15, TypeScript, and Google's Genkit to build a system that enforces a "Maker-Checker" workflow and immutable audit trails from the ground up.
An engaging and forward-thinking speaker, Hriday excels at demystifying automation and its impact on finance. His talk offers a unique perspective: he doesn't just discuss theory; he provides an actionable, code-level blueprint drawn from his multifaceted journey.
Beyond the professional realm, Hriday is a dedicated HYROX athlete, having recently competed in the 2025 Mumbai event, demonstrating his commitment to holistic growth.
