About Tomi Poutanen

Tomi Poutanen co-founded multiple cornerstone institutions in Canada's AI ecosystem including Layer 6 AI, the Vector Institute, and Radical Ventures, giving him a rare perspective as both a serial AI founder and fund co-founder shaping the national AI agenda. He actively builds and leads new AI companies while investing, currently serving as CEO and co-founder of health-AI startup Signal 1 alongside his role at Radical, so founders interact with him as both a capital provider and a current operator facing similar scaling and deployment challenges.
