组图:40位40岁以下的商界精英
24. 大卫•卡普 •年龄:27 •职务:创始人兼CEO •任职公司:轻博客Tumblr 卡鲁15岁从中学辍学。当时,他制定了多个人生规则:“我想要驱动软件,我还想开发在线产品,”他回忆道。过去已成为历史。后来,他创建了轻博客Tumblr,共有1.36亿个博客。今年年初,Tumblr以11亿美元的价格出售给了雅虎公司。据称,在新东家和CEO玛丽莎•梅耶尔(见排名第1位)的领导下,Tumblr的目标是今年广告销售收入达到1亿美元,而它去年的广告销售收入约为1,300万美元。 |
24. David Karp • Age:27 • Title:Founder and CEO • Company:Tumblr When Karp dropped out of high school at age 15, it wasn't without a life plan: "I wanted to drive software, and I wanted to build stuff on the Internet," he recalls. The rest is history: He built Tumblr, which hosts over 136 million blogs, and sold it to Yahoo earlier this year for $1.1 billion. Under its new parent—and CEO Marissa Mayer (see No. 1)—Tumblr is reportedly aiming for $100 million in sales this year from advertising, up from an estimated $13 million generated last year. |
