Thanks to all of you who came to our Venrock Geoweb / Digital Car reception last evening. It was great to see so many people from the eco-system represented. We had folks from established companies such as GM, Daimler, Honda, BMW, Nokia, Navteq, TeleAtlas, AND, Nuance, Microsoft/TellMe, Trimble, Navigon, Sprint etc. as well as private companies such as Placecast, Admob, CloudMade, Zvents, Dash, Autonet etc. Special thanks to our portfolio companies Inrix, uLocate / Where.com and Intercasting as well as all my colleagues from Venrock for coming to the event!
The nicest thing to see was that the leading companies in this space (auto OEMs, mobile device OEMs, map vendors, PND vendors etc.) are all open to partnering with developers and startups for distribution as well as licensing of services, content and enabling technologies.
