Hi, I’m Greg. I’m an award-winning founder, public-company board chairman, investor, and professor.
I was the first in my family to graduate from college. Since then, I’ve built, sold, and financed technology companies in autonomy, AI, defense, and robotics, helped take one public, and raised capital from Microsoft, Sony, Rakuten, Airbus, Qualcomm, Baidu, In-Q-Tel, Temasek, Macquarie, and some of the top venture funds in the world.
Today, I’m Chairman of the Board of EXYN Technologies (Nasdaq: EXYN), an autonomy, robotics, and AI company serving civilian and military customers. I advised Exyn through its 2026 IPO. I chair its Nominating and Governance Committee and its Defense Advisory Board, and I serve on the Audit and Compensation Committees. I also invest in and advise founders across AI, defense, and hardware-software integration.
Exyn follows two companies I helped build. I co-founded AirMap, a multinational aerospace and defense software leader honored as one of the “World’s Most Innovative Companies” by Fast Company, and ranked by Inc.com as one of the world’s “25 Most Disruptive Companies.” I was next an early investor and Executive Chairman at SailPlanAI, a maritime AI company with civilian, government, and military customers, through its acquisition in 2026.
As a professor, I teach internet, privacy, and technology law at Pepperdine University, where I’m a tenured Professor of Law and Public Policy and a faculty member of the Palmer Center for Entrepreneurship and the Law. I hold the AIGP credential in AI governance and the CIPM credential in privacy management, and I have two books forthcoming: “Learning Privacy Law and AI Governance” and “AI Governance for Boards and Executives.”
