Robert May’s Summary

I began my career doing FPGA design and writing test software. I moved on to owning a small business in the sports training industry. I sold my stake, taught some courses at the University of Louisville, took a business development job with a wireless software company, joined a startup that failed to raise a full funding round, and now I do some consulting with the Humana Innovation Center, helping them commercialize some of their ideas, and I run a small online account backup company, www.lifestreambackup.com.

I started the first open source business project on the web, "The Business Experiment," which closed down in March 2006. You can read more about it at http://tinyurl.com/2hzgtz. It is now used as a case study at M.I.T.

I blogged for 5 years at www.businesspundit.com, until I sold it in February 2008.

I love solving complex problems and am particularly fascinated by two topics. 1. How Things Get Valued 2. How the Brain Works. My dream job is to run a value investing fund.
