Fintech & AI growth expert Liam Kenneally, formerly of Stratyfy, joins former Block executives to launch the first AI-native platform for enterprise risk management.

WASHINGTON: Prism Layer, the first AI-native platform for enterprise risk management, today announced the formal appointment of Liam Kenneally as Founding Chief Revenue Officer. Kenneally has been instrumental in Prism Layer’s commercial foundation, leading go-to-market strategy, business development, partnerships, revenue operations, and market expansion across regulated industries.

Prism Layer emerged from stealth in April 2026 with pre-seed funding from Fenway Summer, Plural VC, and a syndicate of DC angel investors across technology and regulatory leadership. Founded by former risk executives at Block, Prism Layer solves the widening gap between business decisions that move in days and risk assessments that still take months. Its governed agentic execution layer turns an organization’s risk frameworks, regulatory context, controls, and institutional knowledge into defensible risk analysis at the speed of business.

“Liam has been pioneering responsible AI adoption for years,” said Simone Garreau, Co-Founder and CEO of Prism Layer. “He understands that innovation in regulated industries relies on trust, proof, technical fluency, and disciplined execution. This instinct and expertise make Liam the ideal leader to build our revenue engine.”

Kenneally previously led growth at Stratyfy, where he partnered with top financial institutions to deploy advanced machine learning and AI for credit, compliance, and fraud risk management. He brings nearly a decade of experience in Washington, DC’s venture, fintech, and policy ecosystem, with deep fluency in how organizations evaluate, procure, govern, and scale technology.

“This founding team was minted in the arena,” said Kenneally. “We’ve lived the old tradeoff between speed and rigor in high-stakes decisions from Wall Street to Silicon Valley to Capitol Hill. Prism Layer exists because that gap carries real costs, and there's finally a way to close it.”

Prism Layer is currently onboarding design partners and expanding conversations with risk, compliance, legal, and operations leaders across regulated industries facing urgent AI mandates.
