Stephen Kaufer

Stephen Kaufer is the co-founder of TripAdvisor, the travel research platform that aggregates reviews and opinions of members about destinations, accommodations, hotels, restaurants, and activities throughout the world. He led the sale of the company in 2004 to IAC/Expedia, who in turn spun it off into its own public company in 2011, and remained as CEO until 2022 when he stepped down for his next adventure.  Tripadvisor is currently valued at approximately 3 billion dollars. Steve is now the co-founder and CEO of GiveFreely, a browser extension that saves users money by finding coupons when they shop, with the amazing twist that every time a user makes a purchase, the store makes a donation to the users’ favorite charity.
