'''Maxime Castel is the CEO and visionary behind Pier to Pier Fitness''', an innovative health-tech
platform that revolutionizes how patients, caregivers, and trainers approach rehabilitation and
fitness. Combining a background in business and engineering with entrepreneurial insight,

tools to track, log, and monitor daily progress in real time. Beyond Pier to Pier, Maxime leads multiple ventures under HF Group, a technology-driven holding company building disruptive platforms across industries.

waist teas designed to complement fitness training and recovery. This extension of the P2P
brand ensures users have access to complete health solutions—combining digital fitness tools
with physical nutrition products.

ownership structured portfolio model. Maxime created Septuple Combine to provide upcoming

with integrated cold-calling packages.
• Other Mono-Tech Platforms – HF Group continues to expand into health-tech,

== Biography ==
'''''Umang Sharma is a technologist, entrepreneur''''', and social impact innovator passionate about assistive technology, AI, and global education access. He is the founder of Jdable, a nonprofit building breakthrough tools for people with disabilities, and a student at Princeton Day School (Class of 2026).

As Founder & CEO of Jdable, Umang leads a global nonprofit that designs and distributes affordable, high-impact assistive technologies. Jdable has directly supported more than 1,000 people with disabilities and reached 100,000+ individuals worldwide through its devices, events, and outreach. Flagship innovations include the patented low-cost Braille keyboard (reducing the cost from $7,000 to under $10), autonomous navigation wheelchairs, IoT smart canes, and 3D-printed tactile globes and learning kits. Umang’s work on the IoT smart cane was featured in a publication hosted by MIT, highlighting his novel integration of IoT, GPS, and haptic feedback for visually impaired mobility.

His research project, Recompose: Cognitive Composting, combining Intel RealSense depth sensing, Raspberry Pi systems, and behavioral psychology, has been published and demonstrated a 37% reduction in cafeteria food waste during pilot trials. This project earned him recognition at the Mercer Science and Engineering Fair, where it received a prize for innovation and impact.

In addition to Jdable, Umang founded PC-Workshop.org, an initiative that brings technology education to underserved students. Through workshops and lab setups in India and the U.S., PC-Workshop has taught 300+ students directly and impacted over 1,000 learners through six additional programs, empowering young people to explore coding, robotics, and computer literacy. Umang is also a research intern at Tufts University IDEA Labs, where he contributes to multisensory VR platforms that translate head movement into spatialized audio-visual experiences. He previously attended the Harvard Secondary School Program, studying robotics, AI, and autonomous systems.

Across these ventures, Umang has secured $500,000+ in grants and donations, established 20+ partnerships with companies and universities, and been featured in multiple news outlets. His guiding philosophy is that every wire soldered, every algorithm trained, and every workshop taught should advance human dignity, accessibility, and global empower
