Imran Khan is the co-founder and CEO of e-commerce site, Verishop, and the former chief strategy officer of Snap, the parent company of Snapchat.
Khan was born in Bangladesh and moved to the United States in 1996 to attend the University of Denver, where he received his bachelor’s degree in finance and economics.
After graduating, he began his career at a Denver satellite-broadband startup, WildBlue. He then moved to New York, where he landed a research position at JP Morgan. He left JP Morgan in 2011 as managing director, head of global internet and U.S. entertainment equity research.
From there, he went on to Credit Suisse where he served as managing director, head of global internet investment banking. During his time at Credit Suisse, he is credited with a leading role in the $25 billion IPO for Alibaba in 2014. He also worked on the IPOs of companies such as GoDaddy, Box, and Groupon, as well as Chinese companies like Jumei, Toudu, and Weibo.
After leaving Credit Suisse in 2015, Khan joined Snap, managing the company’s corporate strategy, operations, ad sales, and growth. He also had a key role in bringing the company to its IPO, and grew revenue from $0 to $728 million. Khan was also instrumental in receiving significant funding from Alibaba, including a $200 million investment in 2015 and $1.8 billion in 2016.
Khan announced his departure from Snap in 2018, amidst declining users and share prices, however he cited a desire to spend more time with family as a primary driver.
That year, he founded both an investment firm, Proem Group, and an e-commerce platform, Verishop. He co-founded Verishop with his wife, Cate, who previously worked for Amazon, Avon, and L’Oreal. The site sells an array of high-end and up-and-coming brands, and it also highlights “Tastemakers” or influencers who can curate their favorite Verishop items to promote to their fans.
