Sergei Nozdrenkov, founder of Wildflow will be giving a talk titled: “Closing the Loop: From 3D Sensing to Reef Restoration”
Sergei Nozdrenkov is the founder of Wildflow, an engineering startup building the data and AI stack to model the biosphere, starting with coral reefs. Previously, he spent six years at Google, where he was a founding engineer on a biodiversity moonshot at X, Alphabet’s Moonshot Factory. There, he applied machine learning to insect biodiversity, specifically focusing on pollinator health and computational pest management. His background spans large-scale distributed systems (Google Ads) and geospatial data processing (Google Maps). Sergei approaches nature through an engineering lens – aiming to increase the information bandwidth between humans and the biosphere to drive effective, scalable restoration. He is also a passionate freediver.
