Techstars Cloud 2016 = Dope
Greetings from Biloxi, Mississippi…
Seven days ago, I had the pleasure of pitching Switchboard Live in front of 500+ people at Techstars 2016 Cloud Demo Day; what an awesome day, experience and an all around great way to end the program. Even though this event was the culmination of the Techstars Cloud program, to us this is a start of a new and exciting path for the team at Switchboard Live!
In case you missed the live stream, I’ve included a link to the HQ version of the archive for your viewing pleasure:

So…Switchboard Live you ask, a pivot NO; a much more clearly defined messaging and plan wrapped around the cool tech that we have built; YES.
This is why we’ve decided to change our name and rebrand to Switchboard Live (www.switchboard.live). Joicaster is still the core product of the company that enables content creators and broadcasters to be able to syndicate their live streams onto multiple platforms. Stay tuned as we have a bunch of updates and cool things in the works.
Next stop is Orlando Fl, as we finish the remaining part of our 16+ hour drive back from San Antonio, TX which started yesterday morning. :)
Oh one last tidbit…we will be exhibiting and distributing the Launch Festival’s (www.launchfestival.com) livestream starting March 2nd-4th. Please stop by and say hello if you're attending the festival in person or are local to the SF area.
Till next time…
Rudy
