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.

Over the course of his career, Craig Bonn has dedicated more than thirty years to developing strategies that help investors participate in opportunities outside of traditional markets. He focuses on alternative investments, private equity, and pre-IPO companies. Today, he is the Managing Partner of Harley Capital LLC, an independent broker-dealer, and the Managing Member of Edge Partners LLC, which organizes Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs) for accredited investors seeking access to late-stage private companies. His professional record includes exposure to various industries—technology, healthcare, energy, and consumer markets—and early involvement in companies such as Facebook, Databricks, and Anthropic.

Craig’s path began in New York, where he was born and raised, before pursuing his undergraduate education at the University of Hartford. Soon after completing his degree, he joined Lehman Brothers. Working at the firm placed him amid global financial activity, where he learned to evaluate risk, manage portfolios, and advise clients across diverse situations. While the environment was demanding and competitive, it also revealed to him the limitations of conventional financial instruments. He observed that not every client’s long-term goals could be met through traditional markets alone, which inspired him to look more closely at alternatives.

Guided by this insight, Craig established Harley Capital LLC. He aimed to create an independent, transparent, and long-term client service firm. Harley Capital grew into a boutique investment company, serving high-net-worth individuals, family offices, and trusts. Clients of Harley Capital benefit from carefully selected opportunities in areas such as private equity and pre-IPO investments, which are often beyond the reach of conventional investors. The firm emphasizes diversification, clear communication, and fiduciary responsibility as central to its mission.

Craig further extended his professional focus through Edge Partners LLC. At Edge Partners, he applies the SPV model to give accredited investors structured participation in pre-IPO and late-stage venture opportunities. Organized under a Delaware Series LLC, the firm is efficient and flexible while maintaining thorough due diligence. Edge Partners has prioritized investments in fields such as artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, robotics, and software, which are industries positioned for long-term growth. He oversees acquiring securities in private companies and holding them until liquidity events such as acquisitions or public offerings occur.

His approach to investing emphasizes three pillars: disciplined risk management, appropriate timing, and a long-term vision. Craig believes that successful outcomes require choosing companies with potential and structuring the investments to safeguard participants. His preference for SPVs reflects this philosophy, providing both access to growth and a framework that manages risk.

Beyond pre-IPO markets, Craig has been active in natural gas mineral funds, venture partnerships, hospitality REITs, and specialized financing. His involvement includes WhiteHawk Energy and investments in Outstanding Foods, Braemar Hotels and Resorts, Prospect Capital, and Urica Therapeutics. Each reflects his practice of assessing industries, market conditions, and company fundamentals before committing capital.

Craig has remained committed to philanthropy and community involvement outside his professional roles. He supports organizations such as Pink Aid and Fred’s Team, which fund cancer research and health initiatives. His contributions include both financial support and participation in awareness-building events.

Craig has lived with his wife in Westport, Connecticut, for over 25 years. He is a runner who has completed five marathons, including the New York Marathon. He also enjoys traveling and gaining perspective by engaging with different cultures and economies.

Balancing his career achievements with philanthropy and personal pursuits, Craig Bonn continues to follow a path that reflects dedication, long-term vision, and community engagement.

I'm Hernán. I'm 41. I’m a retired handball player, and totally into technology and cybersecurity.
