We know what you’re wondering – who is this Michael Rubin and how did he get so rich?
Well Media Take Out did a bit of digging, and Michael is the CEO of Fanatics, the world’s leading provider of licensed sports merchandise; and the owner/executive chairman Rue Gilt Groupe, the premier off-price e-commerce portfolio company, which includes RueLaLa.com, Gilt.com, and ShopPremiumOutlets.com.
Before starting those companies he founded GSI Commerce in 1998, and sold it to eBay in 2011 for $2.4 billion.
Michael was a co-owner of the Philadelphia 76ers basketball team from 2011 and the New Jersey Devils hockey team from 2013 before selling his ownership stakes in both franchises in June 2022.
