In 2008, Smarkets was founded Jason Trost (CEO) and Hunter Morris (CTO), a prediction market website that makes betting on your favourite events simple and social. Instead of betting against a bookie, with Smarkets you bet against other members.
Prior to founding Smarkets, Jason was an application developer at UBS’s Global Asset Management (New York) where he focused on innovative web technologies. Jason founded internet startup Descipher, a consumer medical website and has also been an equities trader at Great Point Capital (Chicago).
