Samuel Gold is Co-Founder of Risklytics, an AI startup building world models for disaster risk prediction, working to transform how industries anticipate and respond to catastrophic events.

Samuel studied Computer Science and Economics at Harvard University, and also served as a Research Assistant at the Institute for Development Impact, supporting data-driven social change initiatives.

Driven by a desire to bet on himself, Samuel turned down a traditional internship, relocated to San Francisco, and went all in on building Risklytics alongside his co-founder Julia Hudson.

Risklytics secured pre-seed funding shortly after launch, validating the team's vision of applying advanced AI world models to the underserved field of disaster risk prediction.

By combining rigorous academic foundations with a bold entrepreneurial leap, Samuel is positioning Risklytics at the frontier of climate and disaster risk intelligence for a data-driven future.
