Founder and CEO
Hushmesh Inc.
Falls Church, VA, United States
Manu Fontaine is the Founder and CEO of Hushmesh Inc., a dual-use, Public Benefit, and NATO DIANA cybersecurity startup in the Washington DC area. The Mesh is a global information space, like the Web, but with cryptographic provenance, traceability, confidentiality, and privacy built in. The Mesh leverages chip-level cryptographic security in the cloud (Confidential Computing) to secure the chip supply chain itself, all the way to end-users. Indeed, only secure chips can secure secure chips! Semiconductor provenance and traceability are paramount for national security; but confidentiality and privacy are paramount to protect business intelligence and citizens' digital lives. To that effect, the Mesh uniquely delivers provenance and traceability WITH confidentiality and privacy, at global scale. Hushmesh Inc. has been selected for NATO's Rapid Adoption Action Plan, which was ratified at the NATO Summit in June 2025.
