TechCrunch is 20 years old. I’m here half the time. I’ve previously worked on numerous large media property, including Time Inc. and Reuters; It was the best job of my life, that’s why the time was probably so fast.
There is nothing like culture here. Contrian, smart, smiling and hard working. Almost everyone in TC wears multiple hats, as anyone who has worked here will tell you. It’s not just another media company – it’s a place where people are curious about everything, everyone takes care of an insane amount about brand (and each other) and where the conventional knowledge is not just encouraged but not expected.
Over the past decade, I personally have the opportunity to interview some amazing people: Sam Altman, Mark Andlesen, Lina Khan, Kanan O’Brien, Al Gore, Finland’s Sanna Marine, as well as people make defense technology, consumer giants and their software companies sell billions of dollars. My colleagues collectively spoke to thousands of thousands of thousands of people who felt the impact on our lives every day. From these conversations, we learned – then explained to our readers – how technology, policies and human ambition intersects to turn the world into the world.
We have taken us from our homes, from the coffee shop, from the office, but around the world, in many places to the opposite end of the earth from Lisbon, London, Berlin, Barcelona, ​​Paris and Davos: Logos, Nairobi, Hong Kong and Hongzhu.
Throughout these cities, we are sitting with the founders who became superstars and superstars who were imprisoned in prison. We have seen annoying technologies occupy the world and celebrated the technologies converted into the Dumpster Fire.
We have seen the whole industries born, mature and sometimes dry. We saw two-man startups turned into a trillion dollar organization. We have covered business innovations. We’ve reported on the breakthroughs that have changed everything. We also covered the “breakthroughs” and the amount of bopkis.
And we are still here. In recent weeks, TC Greece is sitting with the Prime Minister and San Francisco mayor; We also covered the big stories involved in the industry, the most prominent VC, startup founder and big technology. I will stack our transportation, startup, cyberquacy and II coverage against anyone.
These are difficult times in the media; It is in the growing industry in the flow. However, we are still here to everyone who wrote about TC’s supposed death. Twenty years later, we are still breaking the important stories, still holding energy, still find the next big thing before everyone else gets clear to everyone else.
Michael Arrington, thank you for creating this brand that becomes much more than that one can imagine any of us. Thanks to each parent that supports us and today, including the Regent, helps us to do what we like. TC ownership has changed over the years, but our goal is to find the signal and tell stories.
The view that gives you twenty years here and asking you more than twenty years, helping readers to look around the corner and working with people who even create valuable days for it.
To each of those who were part of this story – writers, editors, editors, sources, readers, presence, speakers, critics and cheerleaders – thank you for creating it, a place for people who want to understand what the next can improve the world – and when it does not detect the world. We appreciate you.
