Eric Baker, co-founder and CEO of StubHub, successfully led the company to its Initial Public Offering (IPO) on September 17, 2025, despite facing numerous challenges over two decades. After co-founding StubHub in 2000, Baker experienced a setback when he was ousted in 2004, subsequently founding Viagogo in Europe. When eBay spun off StubHub in 2019, Baker seized the opportunity to purchase the company. The pandemic posed significant challenges, but with the resurgence of live events, StubHub's revenue rebounded, ultimately leading to a public debut that, although below the IPO price, reflects Baker's perseverance and the company's strong brand.
