George Matafonov

I am the founder and executive director of Powered By Trust (PByT). 

I have a BSc majoring in mathematics. My business background is primarily in IT, which includes running my own software development company in the early 90s. 

My interest in this concept stemmed from a concern about the 200+ year experiment in trying to build a society based on the "unholy alliance of neoliberalism and postmodernism."

"Together they complete the conversion of civil society to the market society, under an overarching ideology of postmodern neoliberalism whereby civil society is reduced to the economy, the economy is reduced to the market economy and the market economy is reduced to financial markets." 

This gave rise to the PByT project.

For additional background information about this project please see my founding essay entitled: Towards a Grand Narrative for the 21st Century.
