LivingSocial.com--one of the OPIM Major's Major Success Stories!

The OPIM Major was started in 2002 at Georgetown University's McDonough School of Business. In 2004, we graduated our first class. In this small class of pioneering OPIM majors were two individuals who now work for LivingSocial.com, an extremely successful Washington-based company. Tim O'Shaughnessy is serving as the CEO, and Ian Costello as Vice President of Product Development. Amazon.com just invested $175 million in the company. To read more about LivingSocial, read this article from the Washingtonian magazine (which mentions the OPIM major). In six years, Tim and Ian have been part of an amazing success story.
