Peter has spent the last twenty five years creating and growing companies in a wide variety of sectors spanning from financial services to social media, and now semiconductors. In 1996 Peter co-founded Datek Online, which revolutionized the retail brokerage world providing low-cost, instantaneous executions unlike any of its competitors. By 1997 it was the 4th largest online stock brokerage firm. Peter served as Datek Online's CTO, Director, and President until its multi-Billion dollar merger to form the second-largest brokerage firm in 2003. Next, Peter created another startup to bring web and mobile collaboration services to businesses and consumers. Zenbe’s award-winning services served almost a million users before its acquisition by Facebook in 2010. Afterward, Peter became the first CEO of bitly, a link-shortener used in social media. Over the next two years he tripled the size of the team, raised $15M in funding, and grew the revenue ten-fold. Before moving to NYC and working on technology startups, Mr. Stern spent 6 years designing and field testing military R&D projects involving lasers, helicopters, and classified electro-optic sensors. Peter is an active early-stage investor and mentor. He helped start and ran the Open Field Entrepreneur Fund at Carnegie Mellon to invest in early-stage tech companies, and remains on the board at the SwartzCenter for Entrepreneurship.
