Top founders of all time Steve Huffman Company: Reddit Industry: Internet Country: United States Reddit Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer Steve Huffman's journey to the world of entrepreneurship started in college after he and his roommate (Alexis Ohanian) pitched an idea to develop a phone-based food-ordering system. However, because there were not enough people browsing the internet on their cell phones at the time, the food-ordering idea was nixed, and Huffman began working on his next project, which he called the "front page of the Internet." In one month, Huffman coded the entire Reddit site in Lisp. Within a year of its 2005 launch, the 22-year-old Huffman sold his stake in Reddit for $10-20 million to Vogue publisher Condé Nast.
