Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolKylin Shaw is a founder and CEO with a decade of entrepreneurial experience building human-centered technology ventures from San Francisco. After a career-ending basketball injury, he pivoted from aspiring athlete to serial founder, launching a neural-network startup at 16 and now leading Hippos, which focuses on symbiotic intelligence for the human body. He also founded an invite-only venture, Bond, and serves as a fellow at Sigma Squared Society, blending deep product intuition with a networked approach to talent and research. Educated across LSE, UC San Diego, Wharton, HEC Paris and Berklee, he combines management, mathematical engineering and creative training to tackle multidisciplinary problems. Kylin’s work reflects a throughline: redesigning how humans interface with their biological “operating system” using AI and community-driven platforms. Notably, his earliest exit involved social AI to help kids make friends, demonstrating an unusual mix of social impact and technical ambition.
