Apr 13, 1:00AM
The recent news around Nebula shutting its doors has stirred speculation that OpenStack startups are struggling because of the state of the OpenStack market.

Brands are spending large amounts of money on sponsorships, in particular in sports, which are seen as a unique way of engaging emotionally with fans.

Apr 12, 5:07PM
It’s easy to forget that Pixar is a technology company. Mostly because the invention that they do is in service of a narrative. When done successfully, your attention is held by that narrative, not by the technical achievements that made it possible. With Inside Out, its newest feature due later this year, Pixar had its own unique set of technical challenges to overcome. A bigger vision… Read MoreSign Up To Volunteer At Disrupt NY

Apr 12, 7:01AM
I’m in the car of my co-founder Karan Gupta driving to a brewery in San Francisco. I’m thinking we are all going to get drunk — really drunk. Wishful thinking. It’s past midnight, I’m sober as ever and I’m emailing angels, founders and VCs we met earlier in the day. Life of a founder. But hey, I’m not complaining!

Yet what does the future hold as we enter an age when even the customer –… Read MoreSquare Enix Launches A Cloud-Powered Final Fantasy XIII For iOS And Android In Japan
