Khoury Howell
Khoury Howell is the Founder and Director of Innovation & Development of The National Information Exchange Agency (The NIEA) — and the principal architect of its economic infrastructure. He has designed the contribution networks, verification engines, and value exchange protocols that enable verifiable economic participation across communities and organizations.
NIEA addresses a fundamental structural deficiency in contemporary economies: the Contribution Legibility Gap: the systemic inability to measure, recognize, and economically integrate the full range of human contribution. Khoury's work establishes the mechanisms by which every citizen's capacity to contribute becomes measurable, legible, and economically recognized. These systems are designed to treat economic participation as essential infrastructure, aimed at providing access and agency in the way core public services do, rather than replicating the barriers of discretionary market outcomes.
Operating at the intersection of economic policy, community development, and infrastructure innovation for the age of automation, his work builds scalable platforms for skill and experience matching and contribution-based value exchange. Not a retrofit of existing systems. A new instrument for a system that has never had one.
We are forming our board.
The National Information Exchange Agency is in the process of seating its board of directors. We are looking for individuals with experience in economic policy, community development, civic technology, legal and regulatory affairs, and workforce systems. We are looking for people who understand what it means to build infrastructure in public, and who are willing to hold the organization accountable to its stated principles.
If you are interested in learning more about a board role, reach out directly. We are looking for people who have thought carefully about economic infrastructure and who are willing to ask hard questions of what we are building.
