January 2013 Summaries

Meet us in Barcelona for Mobile World Congress` We're heading to Barcelona for the upcoming Mobile World Congress conference, marking a significant step towards defining our mobile strategy for the future. Our participation in various conferences and hackathons has helped build customer awareness of CartoDB APIs, and we're excited to expand on these initiatives at MWC. We'll have talks on data visualization, enjoy Jamon and Wine with attendees, and meet with those who'd like to schedule a meeting through our provided form.

We've been selected as a finalist for O'Reilly Media's Publishing Startup Showcase, a recognition of our company's impact on the publishing industry. The showcase aims to highlight creative startups in the space and give them a platform to show their work to a global community of leaders and potential investors. Our selection is a testament to the public's support, as they cast votes for us during the semi-finalist phase. We're humbled to be included among ten other innovative companies and look forward to attending the conference in New York this February.

We're going travelling, come meet us on Tour.` CartoDB is embarking on a tour starting next week in Denver, Colorado, where attendees can catch Andrew for talks and collaborative coding sessions, as well as a workshop. The company will also be in San Francisco, with drinks scheduled for the 15th at Thieves Tavern, and Javier's appearance at the Hive in Palo Alto about visualizing large geospatial data sets. Later in January, CartoDB plans to host a meetup for beginners, followed by a trip to Hack Jersey in New Jersey, where winners will receive the equivalent of one year's credit on Magellan Plan. The tour continues in Europe with a presentation at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona from February 25th to 28th.
