Nick Grouf

About

Nick is an entrepreneur and investor. In 1995, he built his first company, Firefly Network, to focus on developing and commercializing collaborative filtering - this core technology still powers the targeting of custom user preferences by companies such as Amazon and Netflix today. In 1999, after selling Firefly to Microsoft, Nick co-founded one of the first ISPs, PeoplePC, which he took public and merged with Earthlink, followed a few years later by Spot Runner, an internet-based platform to produce, buy, place, and distribute targeted cable TV ads.
