Holding an MSc in Computer Science from McGill University, he previously served as Director of Engineering at 500px and co-founded YourExtraLife, a social mobile startup featured prominently on the App Store across multiple countries.

Under George's leadership, Balance has emerged as Canada's largest digital asset custodian, securing over $2.5 billion in assets.
