Nishant Jain is the co-founder and CEO of Presso, an Atlanta company that builds robotic machines to clean, press, and disinfect clothing in about five minutes. He and co-founder Thibault Corens met and studied together at Purdue University and had prior experience starting companies before founding Presso in 2018.
