My answer on Quora to: “E-Commerce: Who are the top e-commerce entrepreneurs in Asia?”

M

Three top e-commerce entrepreneurs from Japan:
1)
Hiroshi Mikitani from Rakuten (http://en.rakuten.co.jp/).
$10 billion market cap.

2)
Minoru Tanaka from Kakaku.com (http://corporate.kakaku.com/en/)
$1.5 billion market cap.

3)
Teruhide Sato from Netprice (http://www.netprice.com/english/…)
$70 million market cap.

Note:
Mikitani and Sato started their e-commerce platforms by themselves and still lead them, while Tanaka joined Kakaku.com (which offers Japan’s biggest price comparison engine, amongst others) joined five years after inception.
