Conrad Shaw
UBI Trial Manager & Series Co-Creator of Bootstraps docuseries, Co-Founder of Comingle, Co-Founder of Income to Support All Foundation and Creator of UBIcalculator
Conrad Shaw is a researcher, producer, writer, and activist in the Universal Basic Income (UBI) space. A mechanical engineer turned filmmaker, in 2016 he launched into full-time UBI work when he teamed up with his now wife and partner Deia Schlosberg on a docuseries project called Bootstraps, for which he designed and managed the Bootstraps Basic Income Experiment - delivering basic incomes of $1K/month to 22 Americans across 10 states for 2.5 years - and field-produced for the film production side of the project. Conrad also created the UBIcalculator as a tool for the movement, wrote a couple dozen essays on different facets of UBI, and in 2020 became a co-founder of Comingle, a startup company building a next gen mutual aid platform designed along basic income principles. In 2023, he co-founded the Income to Support All (ITSA) Foundation.

Scott Santens
Founder and President of Income To Support All Foundation
I’m Scott Santens, and I've been researching and advocating for the concept of unconditional universal basic income (or UBI) since 2013. Acknowledged by former U.S. presidential candidate Andrew Yang as one of those who helped shape his thinking, I've lived with a basic income floor via Patreon since 2015 which has enabled me to focus on popularizing the concept full-time ever since.
I am the Founder and President of the Income To Support All Foundation (ITSA Foundation) and also serve on the board of directors of the Gerald Huff Fund for Humanity and as the editor of Basic Income Today — a daily UBI news hub. My debut book about UBI and how to pay for it is titled Let There Be Money. You can buy it on Amazon or listen to it on your favorite podcast platform.
