As Groupon prepares their IPO, they've released information on their largest shareholder, 41 year old Eric Lefkofsky, who owns a whopping 21% of Groupon shares. This is 3 times as much as Andrew Mason, the CEO and brains behind the outfit.
Lefkofsky's initial investment in Groupon was a cool $1 million back in 2008. At the current IPO price range, this investment could end up being worth in the $4 billion range now.
This isn't Lefkofsky's first investment or company either, he has been involved in a number of tech companies through the years and still has investments in other start ups. He met Andrew Mason when Mason worked for one of his other companies.
