About ME
Patrick Byrne is a well-known corporate business executive, entrepreneur, and innovator. Byrne is perhaps best known for his role in the successful launch of online retailer Overstock.com, where he served as Founder and CEO for over 20 years.
Patrick Byrne created Overstock.com from the ground up, overseeing the company's transformation from a promising retail startup to one of the world's most successful online shopping platforms. Following the launch of Overstock.com in 1999, Byrne's innovative mindset and astute leadership fueled the company's meteoric rise to success, resulting in Overstock.com's first profitable quarter just three years later (2002).
Overstock.com achieved profitability for the first time in 2009, thanks to Byrne's leadership. The then-burgeoning etailer quickly established itself as a household name and a formidable retail industry competitor, generating more than $1.8 billion in revenue by 2016. Overstock.com's eighth consecutive year of profitability came only a year later.
