Zuckerberg Passes On Facebook's Meeting With Analysts

Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer Mark Zuckerberg is the most visible face behind Facebook, but he wasn't part of this week's meeting analyst briefing about the forthcoming initial public offer.

Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer Mark Zuckerberg is the most visible face behind Facebook, with no disrespect intended toward Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg, but according to published reports, Zuckerberg was conspicuously absent from an analyst meeting this week related to the company’s initial public offering.

The Wall Street Journal reported that Zuckerberg was not part of a Monday meeting with analysts at Facebook’s headquarters in Menlo Park, Calif., and Chief Financial Officer David Ebersman told the gathering that Zuckerberg wanted to focus on development, rather than selling the IPO.
