Nice piece on one of our more under that radar companies- Path Intelligence. The team is doing some amazing work with passive tracking and the underlying analytics that are generated thanks to the ubiquity of mobile phones. They have a large and growing customer base that is using their technology to adapt and iterate in physical space with the same measurement that marketers use on the web. And they’re seeing very real world results. Reblogged this from brycedotvc.

About this time last year I found myself, a bit unexpectedly, in a large ball room in Santa Monica. On stage, was Tony Hsieh, of Zappos fame, recounting his story of building Zappos, his new book and his much publicized Downtown Project. Like most in the audience, I’d heard plenty about each; however, as he neared the end of his presentation.
