In Episode 171 of the Disruptors for Good podcast, I speak with Chris Georgen, Founder of Topl, on empowering corporations, startups and nonprofits to unlock value from positive impact using blockchain technology.

Chris is a highly accomplished leader with an impressive track record in the web3 space. Serving as Managing Director of Topl, he helps to spearhead the only blockchain ecosystem dedicated to radical impact and takes an active role in protocol design while leading tokenomics and governance efforts. Furthermore, Chris has been part of this sector since 2012 when co-founding a mobile payments fintech that launched on Ethereum shortly after its launch; his success having stemmed from degrees obtained at Rice University spanning Mathematics, Chemical Physics & Philosophy.

During his time at university, Chris made an impact in the academic realm - researching complex systems and developing models that would power Topl's unique design. He also pushed forward conversations on blockchain technology, economics, sustainability, international development across 20 countries during invited talks and various working groups. His efforts further empowered web3 to bring meaningful social impact initiatives into realization.
