About Adam Alpert

I’ve been building things since I was a kid with an HD camcorder, making ridiculous videos with my friends (one of them somehow cleared a million views). Taking an idea and turning it into something real has been the through-line of my life.I started Pangea out of my Brown dorm room and grew it through Y Combinator, several funding rounds, a major pivot into mid-career creative talent, and ultimately into a profitable business serving clients worldwide. Along the way I learned how to run a a P&L, scale a marketplace, build data pipelines from scratch, and lead exceptional teams.More recently, I’ve branched into new projects: leading product at a Series A three-sided marketplace, using AI coding agents to ship full-stack applications end-to-end, and scaling the NYC Founders Club into a community (now expanding into Cambridge).Today I’m an MBA candidate at MIT Sloan, focused on the intersection of AI, marketplaces, and the future of work. I’m spending my time building products, communities, and systems that shape what comes next.Always open to meeting great people and collaborating on meaningful projects.
