Bio

Şekip Can Gökalp is a repeat founder with two 8-digit exits in consumer and gaming. He co-founded Mobilike (acquired by Opera), ran AdColony as COO through critical turnaround at $500M+, grew Coda to $25M ARR, and as CEO of Fusebox drove a 10x rise to $50M ARR through to its sale to Nazara. Now Pelago’s co-founder and CEO, he applies a proven zero-to-scale playbook to AI wellness.
