Emil Eifrem, CEO of Neo Technology
Emil is the founder of the Neo4j open source graph database project,
which is the most widely deployed graph database in the world. As a life-long
compulsive programmer who started his first free software project in 1994, Emil
has with horror witnessed his recent degradation into a VC-backed powerpoint
engineer. As the CEO of Neo4j's commercial sponsor Neo Technology Emil is now
mainly focused on spreading the word about the powers of graphs and preaching
the demise of tabular solutions everywhere. Emil presents regularly at
conferences such as JAOO, JavaOne, QCon, and OSCON.
