Misha Gopaul
Founder of FATMAP
Misha is a serial entrepreneur with nearly two decades of experience founding and running successful technology companies. He started his first business, Fabric Technologies, building computers in his bedroom which grew to a team of over 120 people before a merger with a publicly listed competitor in 2011. He plays an active role in the European tech eco-system as an advisor, angel investor and mentor and currently serves on the Board at NEX Abide Financial and Workplace Fabric. In 2013, a chance meeting with adventurer and self-professed mapping geek, David Cowell sparked the beginning of his most ambitious project to date, combining his passion for mountains and technology – to build FATMAP, the world’s leading adventure platform and the most precise and detailed 3D map of the outdoors – a 1:1 map in virtual reality. Competing with established mapping giants has called for an innovative approach to business models and partnerships. Using gaming technology and disruptive models from the tech and music industry FATMAP is on a mission to map the world in human scale detail and build the highest resolution computational map of our planet.

Bruce Grove
Co-Founder & CEO of Polystream
Bruce has 25 years experience across video game platforms, enterprise, telecoms, and avionics. Bruce came to Polystream following senior leadership roles at OnLive including engineering, business and corporate development, and overseeing the company’s launch and growth in Europe. Having spent more than ten years in the US in roles including engineering leadership at Sun Microsystems, Tellme Networks, and Dell XPS, Bruce then joined the first wave of the cloud gaming revolution as head of engineering at OnLive. Instrumental in delivering the world’s first direct-to-consumer cloud gaming solution, he moved back to the UK in 2011 to build OnLive’s European business; apparently he missed the pubs and curries, and rain. Having started his career building Harrier Jump Jets, Bruce figured that video games just seemed like a natural progression, and a little less expensive when you get it wrong.
