Francis Hoang

France Hoang is the Founder & CEO of BoodleBox, a collaborative AI platform designed to make advanced AI accessible, safe, and useful for teams, educators, and organizations. A West Point graduate and former White House lawyer, France brings a unique blend of discipline, public service, and entrepreneurial drive to his work in emerging technology.

BoodleBox is France's third venture, following a track record of building and exiting companies with a combined value of over $600 million. Across each chapter of his career, he has focused on solving hard problems at the intersection of technology, people, and mission — and BoodleBox continues that pattern by tackling one of AI's biggest barriers: usability and trust.

At BoodleBox, France leads a team dedicated to democratizing access to AI through collaborative intelligence — enabling multiple people and multiple AI models to work together in real time — while championing AI literacy and privacy-by-design principles for schools, mission-driven organizations, and enterprises alike.

A Distinguished Visiting Lecturer at West Point and frequent speaker on AI strategy and innovation, France is passionate about ensuring that as AI reshapes industries — including sports, education, and workforce development — it does so responsibly, equitably, and with humans firmly in control.

He lives by the belief that the best breakthroughs happen when diverse minds, human and AI alike, collaborate toward a shared goal.
