George Bounacos began an obsession with online revenue generation in the 1980s. Four startups he has been part of have sold for a combined $96 million.

He created online content for companies that evolved into CompuServe, AOL and others before moving to e-commerce. While an executive at CARFAX.com, he created the company's Buy Back Guarantee program and led revenue generation from more than 20,000 businesses.

Bounacos judges George Mason University's School of Management capstone case competition several times each year and coaches business students in summer.
