Summary
Arash Farahani is a founder and seasoned tech leader with 12 years of experience building startups and product teams across fintech, AI trading, healthtech, and digital transformation. He founded and exited an AI prop trading lab, led product and operations at a fast-growing Web3 fintech, and now runs Harmonea — a company applying mindfulness to boost performance for high-stakes professionals — while hosting a global podcast on presence. Equally comfortable in technical and strategic roles, he has delivered measurable operational gains for SMEs and scaled teams across multiple jurisdictions. Based in Old Toronto with a background in computer science and an advanced degree in Technology Innovation Management, he blends engineering chops with business acumen and a public-facing voice as a tech journalist/host. A less obvious thread: he pairs high-velocity venture building with intentional practices (breath, stillness) as core product differentiators.
