Matthew J Smith has built a professional path centered on investment leadership and operational experience across the energy, power, and data center industries. With nearly twenty years of work, he has developed a practical understanding of how financial strategy connects to real-world performance. His background includes responsibilities in both hedge funds and public companies, allowing him to approach decisions with balance and clarity. Through every stage, he has focused on steady progress and responsible management.

He started his career as an analyst, where he gained valuable experience in studying companies, assets, and market cycles. In these early roles, he learned how to evaluate financial data, forecast potential results, and assess business risks. Those lessons shaped his careful and structured way of thinking about investments. His time in these positions provided him with the tools to interpret economic patterns and enhance his ability to make informed, disciplined decisions in complex environments.

Matthew advanced into senior research and portfolio management roles within established investment firms. His work focused on the industrial and energy sectors, where changing market trends demanded thoughtful analysis. By concentrating on the relationships between cyclical and long-term market forces, he refined an approach that valued consistent research and sound judgment. His contributions supported institutional portfolios managing significant assets, where he maintained an emphasis on careful evaluation, long-term focus, and risk control in rapidly evolving markets.

He carried those principles into his own firm when he founded Deep Basin Capital. As Managing Partner and Chief Investment Officer, he created a strategy that combined detailed industry analysis with teamwork and structured processes. Matthew led efforts in recruiting, technology development, and investment execution, prioritizing investor trust at every step. Under his guidance, the firm grew and ultimately completed its operations successfully, reflecting his commitment to disciplined leadership and long-term value creation.

He later extended his experience into the public company space, serving as both a board member and Chief Financial Officer for a merchant power and data center operator. In this capacity, he managed financial reporting, operational planning, and asset oversight during a period of organizational challenge. His steady leadership supported financial recovery, strategic development, and a sale that provided strong results for stakeholders. The experience strengthened his understanding of governance and operational responsibility.

Matthew J Smith continues to value community involvement alongside professional work. He founded a food drive that helps families in need and has sustained the initiative over several years with consistent local support. Outside of his career, he enjoys sports, outdoor activities, and creative projects that balance his demanding professional life. His outlook combines financial understanding, operational discipline, and a genuine commitment to steady improvement. He remains focused on making meaningful contributions to both his field and the community.

My work sits at the intersection of real estate, finance, and digital infrastructure. I’ve researched and operated in this space since 2020, though I had been tracking blockchain and digital assets closely since 2017. I first founded a company focused on tokenized investment syndication, a path that led me to explore how AI, blockchain, and IoT could bring new levels of transparency, efficiency, and liquidity to real estate.

That experience grew into Building, a company focused on turning messy real estate data into something organized, trusted, and usable. We work with developers and asset managers to streamline their information and get their properties ready for valuations, compliance, and tokenization. The aim is to make every project finance-ready from the start.

I’m extremely cross-disciplinary, juggling a wide range of fields daily: architecture, engineering, construction, operations, urban planning, sustainability, blockchain, artificial intelligence, data science, capital markets, compliance, banking, and policy.

Outside of running a startup, I travel the world speaking publicly—keynotes, panels, and roundtables—while collaborating with startups, institutions, and government officials. My work advocates for RWA tokenization, data standards, and smarter cities. Improving the built environment and all its dependencies is one of the most challenging, but rewarding, pursuits.

I also host Code & Concrete, a podcast exploring real estate, technology, and the systems that hold cities together.

James has been working on commercial software since the late 1990s, when TDD was something you studied but never did, pipelines were something that carried oil and Agile and Lean were words used to describe gymnasts.

In 2015 he started life as a consultant and worked with a variety of clients trying to effect real organisational change by focusing on code quality, culture, a belief in outcomes over processes and a drive for continuous improvement. After leaving consultancy James worked as Head of Platform in a Fintech before it was acquired for $1Bn by Visa and VP of Engineering in a startup, where he learnt how to apply his knowledge of Agile and DevOps to drive positive outcomes in Platform and Cyber Security Teams.

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.
