Mike Serbinis, Founder and CEO, Among 100 Most Intriguing
Entrepreneurs at 2019 Builders + Innovators Summit
SANTA BARBARA, Calif.,
Oct. 16, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Goldman
Sachs (NYSE:GS) is recognizing Mike Serbinis, League Inc. Founder
and CEO, as one of the 100 Most Intriguing Entrepreneurs of 2019 at
its Builders + Innovators Summit in Santa
Barbara, California.
Goldman Sachs selected Serbinis as one of 100 entrepreneurs from
multiple industries to be honored at the three-day event. With over
$1B in previous exits, Serbinis is a
proven entrepreneur and pioneering technologist who has transformed
the way people live, learn, connect and do business. He was the
founder and CEO of digital reading company Kobo, which quickly
became the only global competitor to Amazon's Kindle. Before that,
he founded, grew, and sold cloud storage pioneer DocSpace to
Critical Path—a messaging service that ran one-third of the world's
email.
His current company, League, is North
America's leading enterprise health OS, a data-driven
platform designed to provide a single access hub for employees to
engage with their health, lifestyle and benefit programs. Current
customers include Unilever, Shopify, Lush Cosmetics and L'Occitane.
League was recently named to CB Insights' inaugural Digital Health
150 ranking, which showcases the most promising private digital
health companies in the world. The company also ranked fifth on the
2019 LinkedIn Top Startups List, which recognizes the top
sought-after startups.
Serbinis accepted the award and alluded to other announcements
coming soon. "While this award has my name on it, I'm a firm
believer that start-ups are a team sport and know that this award
is a reflection on the entire League family," Serbinis added. "Our
team at League is reinventing how employees interact with their
benefits, allowing them to take back control of their own health.
I'm looking forward to sharing the next stages of our
entrepreneurial journey with the world as we launch some exciting
innovations and partnerships in the coming months."
"True innovation is built from a diversity of perspectives and
experiences," said David M. Solomon,
Chief Executive Officer of Goldman Sachs. "Our Builders +
Innovators Summit brings together a collective of impressive future
leaders who are striving to drive meaningful change. For 150 years,
Goldman Sachs has supported entrepreneurs as they launch and grow
their businesses. That's why we are pleased to recognize Mike as
one of the most intriguing entrepreneurs of 2019."
In addition to honoring 100 entrepreneurs, the summit consists
of general sessions and clinics led by seasoned entrepreneurs,
academics and business leaders, as well as resident scholars.
