So we have been based in the Bay Area for the entire life span of Liftopia. Throughout that time, we have attended various entrepreneurial events down in the valley, and inevitably have seen the rise of many neat companies. One of the great wins out in SV, is to be featured in Techcrunch, and we are happy to say Liftopia received a great writeup yesterday.
Jason Kincaid does an awesome job explaining how Liftopia functions, and helps folks really understand the story behind our company’s growth. It is great to have Jason accurately portray our model, despite not being a skier himself. This makes us feel comfortable that our business makes sense, and hopefully we can turn Jason in to a skier or snowboarder at some point soon (come on, it isnt so bad to be up in the mountains!).
Obviously getting written up here is far from being a stamp of success (one can note their long list of written-about-but-now-defunct companies in their Deadpool). It is, however, great to have a tech blog recognize that we can be innovative in a space that isnt exactly considered to be cutting edge. We still have a lot of work to do, but we hope we can help broaden the business for ski companies, and bring more people in to the sport. Great job Jason, let us know if you ever want to get out on the snow with us.
