Browse database — It's Free!Ron Garret, Ph.D. is the Founder and CEO at Spark Innovations. He began his career as a researcher at the NASA Jet Propulsion Lab, where he worked on autonomous spacecraft and mobile robots for planetary exploration. His work laid the foundation for the subsequent Mars rover missions, and he became the most referenced computer science researcher inall of NASA according to CiteSeer. Ron's entrepreneurial streak was evident as early as junior high school, when he wrote his first business plan for a retail store that would sell nothing but computer software (a radical idea in 1979) and built one of the world's first computer dating services on an Apple ][+. Ron's first real startup was a company that built high-speed local area networks in the early nineties. In 2000 he left JPL to work for what was at the time an obscure Silicon Valley startup called Google, where he was the lead engineer on the first release of AdWords, and the author of the Google Translation Console, the interface by which volunteers translate Google's site content into over 200 different languages including Klingon. After the Google IPO Ron started a new career as a serial entrepreneur and independent angel investor. He co-founded three startups, most notably an on-line marketplace for charter jets called Smart Charter, which was acquired pre-launch by Richard Branson and launched as Virgin Charter. During this time he also produced and directed a full-length documentary film about homelessness. In 2008, together with Brian Singerman (now a partner at Founders Fund) Ron co-founded a small investment fund called XGYC (not to be confused with XG Ventures) which to date has an annualized IRR over 60%.

- HipPocket — It takes too long to find or to sell a home—10 weeks on average to search for a home to buy and 12 weeks to sell a home. AI can improve this but seller-focused property websites and Multiple Listing Service (MLS’s) have no incentive or ability to change. Zillow does not want to disrupt $750M of ad revenues and the 850 MLS’s are agent-only tools andeach organization does not have the ability, funds and scale to introduce AI. Buyers and Sellers will continue to suffer if this status quo is not broken.At HipPocket we’re developing an intelligent real estate platform that reduces search and sale times by matching buyers faster to more relevant homes using machine learning, and powering rapid collaboration between buyer, agents and seller through AI enhanced messaging.
