About Jonathan Coon, Angel Investor

Jonathan Coon likes to solve hard problems and create experiences that customers love. He started 1800contacts / contacts.com in his dorm with $50. A small company but with an annual revenue of what Google does in two days. He was a public CEO for 10 years. He did a fun demo at TED in 2013 for the tech they developed for glasses.com (creates a 3D head model using the 2D camera on an iPad - something multiple CV experts told us was impossible). He sold 1800contacts in June 2012 for $900 million. He then retired from 1800contacts in 2014. The company was sold again in September 2020 for $3.1 Billion. Jonathan Coon has been an entrepreneur since he was eight years old.
