   Gary Khabinski – Co-Founder & CEO
As CEO, Gary is responsible for the strategic and long range planning of all divisions of B2B Soft. His primary focus is the strategic aspects of the company’s business development as well as oversight of business operations in both the U.S. & the Ukraine. Gary started in the software industry in 1997 as a Technical Business Analyst & System Administrator for Kliger-Weiss Info systems (KWI), a leader in outsourced retail software-based solutions for specialty retailers, such as Kenneth Cole, QVC, Swatch, United Colors of Benetton, Liz Claiborne, and Little Me. An early consulting engagement led to the development of a customized software platform to manage the client’s wireless retail business and two years later he left KWI to start his own software consulting company focusing on the wireless retail sector. In developing this business, Gary saw an unmet need in the retail marketplace for a business management solution at the point of sale and launched B2B Soft and its Wireless Standard software solution, which today is being used by hundreds of companies, from small retail operations to large corporate enterprises, as a way to better manage and run their business.

Gary is a board member of the MBS Business School and heads the external committee providing direction and guidance on programs and curriculum as they relate to commercial integration.
