Andreas Gal
FOUNDER AND CEO, SILK HOMES
Innovation:
Invented an intuitive home management system.
Vision:
Earlier this year, as part of his Silk Labs startup, Andreas Gal introduced Sense, a unique system designed to replace smartphones as a primary hub for a home’s connected products. It acts as the digital eyes, ears, and brains of the home.
Economics:
The sleek device intuitively performs commands like turning on the lights in a room the user is walking toward, playing music it has learned an individual family member likes, and keeps tabs on who is home.
