A heartfelt thanks to all of you for writing in. We couldn’t do it without your support and readership. Luke and I are in Boston this week for our XSITE summit and company retreat (and to celebrate two years of Xconomy in Boston). We’re looking forward to bigger and better things in the next year!

Luke and team, congratulations! You have changed the biotech and technology reporting landscape in a very positive way. A great addition that also provides more visibility to the region. And, thanks for not forgeting about us little people up here in the northern reaches of Cascadia…

I always loved MIT Technology Review so when the guys who were behind that start Xconomy I expected great insightful and thorough journalism on innovation. I have not been disappointed and am an avid fan and follower. I love the energy, enthusiasm, smarts, and commitment to our broader mission of growing an innovation
ecosystem for our country. As someone coming from an academic to commercial bent now I value the willingness to follow trends and raw inputs and not just companies and financings.

It’s been great reading Xconomy for the news scoop and behind-the-scenes reporting on local companies. We are pleased to see coverage of Western Canadian companies as part of the greater Pacific Northwest industry clusters. Keep up the good work!

Xconomy’s coverage is one of the things that makes Seattle a great place to grow a business. Great work this past year, and I can’t wait to see what the next year brings.

What a whirlwind! Tripling traffic in a year through the sheer power of will and caffeine is a momentous feat by any measure. There is always vacancy in the world of journalism for cutting minds with boundless energy, and Xcomony is doing more than their part to fill that vacancy with one of the most talented and dedicated teams I’ve witnessed.

Looking forward to see what your team will come up with next!

Great job Luke and Greg! For economic development types like myself at Snohomish County government, Xconomy is an invaluable source of timely, in-depth tech industry news. You help make our region and business communities more competitive by providing access and critical insight into an industry so crucial to our local economy. Keep up the good work!
