He co-founded Sina.com’s precursor company, SinaNet, in 1995, and later shepherded the company through a $78-million IPO and the ensuing dot-com decline to eventually create a billion-dollar operation. Hurst oversaw SINA’s global business development, and mergers and acquisitions, and was heavily involved in the company’s day-to-day operations as well as major corporate transactions and pre-IPO funding.
