Jeremy Stoppelman Biography

Jeremy Stoppelman was on a conference call with venture capitalists when an assistant slipped him a note: Steve Jobs is on the line. Stoppelman quietly left the room at Yelp headquarters in downtown San Francisco. It was January 2010 and Google wanted to buy Yelp the online crowd-sourced review site. On the phone Jobs urged Stoppelman who revered the Apple chief as a visionary to stay independent and not sell out to Google. Jobs was not a fan of Google and had accused the search giant of stealing Apple's smart-phone and tablet technology. At that point we had already turned down Google Stoppelman said. But Steve liked Yelp and wanted to make sure about Google. It was a moment where I said 'This is crazy. What just happened?' For Stoppelman who is 34 and co-founded Yelp in October 2004 the crazy moments have only continued. After his company went public this spring when the young entrepreneur pushed the button to ring the opening bell on the New York Stock Exchange Stoppelman received another call - this one from President Obama congratulating him.
