Edge Total Intelligence (TSXV:CTRL) appointed Eric Slater to its board of directors, adding extensive technology and AI experience with top global firms.

Slater is currently senior vice president of the innovation arm of Zeta Global (NYSE:ZETA), market capitalization US$3 billion, an omnichannel cloud platform specializing in consumer intelligence and marketing automation.

He also advises a portfolio of companies through SLaiTER, a boutique AI consultancy, which has partnered with AI star-tups across various industries, and co-founded UrgentIQ, an electronic medical records platform for urgent care clinics, where he raised $4.5 million in funding and executed on a successful go-to-market strategy.

Previous highlight roles include creator and innovator of intelligent systems at Bridgewater, the US$126 billion asset manager founded by Ray Dalio; Instinet, a global trading ecosystem; and Citadel, a US$65 billion alternative investment manager. According to Friday’s news release, his work at these top firms, focused on finance, trading and data engineering, has supported “hundreds of billions in assets under management and trillions in annual trading volume,” and continues to be in use today.

Slater majored in statistics and computer science at Harvard, where he rowed on the varsity heavyweight team and co-founded the Harvard Hackathon Club.

His appointment, effective on April 23, 2025, follows the resignation of Brett Paulson, who will continue with edgeTI as an advisor.
