Top 5 Under the Radar media startups
Josh and I spent last Thursday at the Under the Radar event on entertainment and new media. At this event, 32 really interesting companies pitched to the usual crowd of venture capitalists, journalists, and potential partners and acquirers. There were gaming startups, virtual worlds operators, music streamers, and more. We picked our top five companies from the list; see the video for the results.
Check out our full coverage of the event (courtesy of Josh and News.com's Greg Sandoval; I was busy moderating), and stay tuned for a video of the keynote speaker, MTV's EVP Jeff Yapp. He runs MTV's virtual world programs as well as the media giant's foray into video gaming.
