Let’s Date Names New CEO

ALLTHINGSD - June 25 - Let's Date, the mobile matchmaking app startup, named Adam Huie its new CEO. Huie was a co-founder and director of strategy and operations at Hatch Labs, the development shop responsible for creating Tinder. Tinder is Let’s Date’s largest competitor. After Tinder was built, parent company IAC shut down Hatch Labs and shuttered many of the projects within. Tinder, the most successful app to come out of Hatch Labs by far, is still up and running under IAC’s ownership. Huie and Let’s Date prefer the more detailed, full-profile approach. “We actually want to match folks together to go on a date, so we provide extra features after the match,” said Huie.
