Jack Hidary on Quantum Information Sciences, Grand Challenges and Moonshots
Jack Hidary has been a successful serial technology entrepreneur and is a regular guest on Bloomberg, Fox Business, and CNBC, as well as a frequent keynote speaker, having presented at the business schools of Yale and Columbia, and at TEDx.
Jack established EarthWeb and led the company through its IPO as Chairman and CEO three years later, which, by the way was one of the largest first-day openings in history. EarthWeb then acquired Dice and changed the company’s name to Dice.com and is now listed on the NYSE. He co-founded Vista Research in 2001 as an independent financial research company serving institutional investors and sold it to the Standard & Poor’s division of McGraw-Hill in 2005. In 2013 he ran for Mayor of New York City, and the New York Times described him as “socially progressive, fiscally reserved, and digitally savvy.”
