Meet Chronicle’s Founder
Empathy and Expertise – Matthew Borowski, CEO of Chronicle
The mind of Matthew Borowski, Founder and CEO of Chronicle, is where expertise, compassion, and positive action meet. Completing a Bachelor of Geomatic Engineering degree from the University of Melbourne, and highly-valuable specialisation as a licensed surveyor, Matthew focussed on his expertise – he honed his passion for all things spatial. From satellite maps and GPS to 3D scanning, Matthew saw his purpose in better representing our world, practically and usefully.
An Entrepreneurial Journey
In 2010, he co-founded the project development company, M&B Consulting. Matthew helped to build links between local housing, agriculture, and mining projects in Zambia with international finance.
This entrepreneurial path provided new perspective – business must be rooted in the improvement of society.
Returning to Melbourne, Matthew gained further experience as a sales consultant in surveying and mapping for CR Kennedy. Here, he witnessed how tech can be used by real business to help clients. When the Secretary of Macedon Cemetery enquired about land surveys, the idea of Chronicle was born.
We give back to the community
Community First
Without engagement, there can be no cohesion in community. We tend to forget that as a community, engagement depends on the lives of every individual. We want our lives to be remembered and we hope to act, every day, in a way that our actions ripple outwards to positively affect our community at large.
