The Big Planet Story
Big Planet was founded in 1998 to take advantage of the tremendous potential and growth of the Internet as an ISP (Internet service provider) business. Over the next year and a half, the company grew from those small beginnings to attract clients like Nike and TCI Cable, as well as the attention of network marketing giant Nu Skin Enterprises, Inc. NSE, which had been looking to add a technology arm to its direct sales business, in 1998 made an equity stake in Big Planet where it has expanded its ISP offering to also include communications and technology products and services. In July 1999, Nu Skin Enterprises acquired Big Planet for $37 million.
