Top SchoolPilgrim Beart is a seasoned entrepreneur and engineering leader with over three decades of hands-on experience building hardware and software businesses in IoT, energy and consumer electronics. Currently VP Energy Services at Pod Point, he led an internal startup that scaled grid flexibility to seven-figure ARR within 18 months and helped shift gigawatt-hours of electricity through commercial deployments.
