Groupon, the rapidly growing deal site headed toward an IPO, has brought in a former Versign and Yahoo corporate communications hand as VP of global communications.
Bradford Williams, who left Verisign in November as VP of worldwide corporate communications, joined Groupon this month. He was previously a communications consultant for Alibaba.com and VP of corporate communications at both Yahoo and eBay.
The move comes after the Chicago-based company filed June 2 for an IPO valuing it in the $30B range. It has hired Brunswick to support financial communications and retains SS|PR for media relations work.
