Erik Rind is the CEO of ImagineBC and an expert in understanding the largely untapped potential that Blockchain and AI technologies bring forward in order to help secure user’s data. He has had significant exposure to writing software in the HCM space and is in the position to bring these skills to his new company.
Erik graduated from George Washington University in 1983 with a B.A. in History. Erik has over 30 years of experience in building advanced technology solutions and has been involved in the HR services industry since 1990. His professional track-record includes starting and then selling PowerPay software for $22 million and becoming President and CEO of Lyceum Business Services until 2018 when he chose to embrace his entrepreneurial side. Additionally, Erik is an advisory board member to Vertalo, Dashub, and Health Wizz.
ImagineBC which is set to formally launch in late May (https://imaginebc.net/), was inspired largely by the growing outcry across the globe surrounding how vulnerable consumers are in relation to their personal data. While some major tech companies have announced sweeping changes, with privacy (or at least some version of it) in mind it's clear that more needs to be done. It's that central thought which has come to shape ImagineBC.
Simply put, ImagineBC has identified how blockchain technology can be combined with other new technologies, such as Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning, to create innovative solutions that will empower individuals to efficiently and easily control the distribution of their personal information and turn this distribution into an income stream for themselves and not Facebook, Google, Amazon and all the other 3 rd parties currently profiting from their personal information.
