Profiel
Charles Stack is a successful serial entrepreneur.
After graduation from Case Western Reserve University Law School, he formed Parallax, Inc., which developed and marketed a PC-based networking case management software system for asbestos litigation to national law firms and corporate law departments.
In 1992, Charles started Books.com, the first online bookstore.
Charles pioneered many of the features we now take for granted in today’s internet retailers.
Books.com offered millions of books, comprehensive searching, collaborative recommendations (patented), shopping carts, price comparisons (patented), real-time credit card processing, affiliate programs, and introduced many other now standard Internet retailing concepts.
Books.com was acquired by CUC, Inc. in early 1996 and subsequently by Barnes and Noble.
In 1998, he founded Flashline to address the new opportunity in software components and web services.
BEA Systems, Inc. acquired Flashline in 2006.
BEA was acquired by Oracle in 2008 and the Flashline product remains the core offering in Oracle’s web services suite.
Currently, Stack is focused on all things blockchain and expanding the Flashstarts portfolio.
