Big takeaways Mike Nicols
“Emerging competitors like Google have a cloud infrastructure, a community with YouTube, but they don’t have the content,”
But they do have Phil Harrison industry veteran with 30 years of experience.
Harrison being interviewed by Polygon said “Don’t read too much into why so-and-so was there and why so-and-so wasn’t there,” “We’ve had deep conversations over a number of years now. We’ve shipped over a hundred development kits already. We’ve got thousands of creatives already underway. So you’ll see a pretty amazing lineup come June.”
