The battle for developer mindshare is heating up in the ‘gesture platform wars’.
Gesture interactive technologies offer new and exciting applications from entertainment to healthcare. I believe in some cases it will be transformative, in other cases purely novel, and likely in a majority of cases simply incrementally better, but welcomed. Come to our Open House and make your own judgement...up or down.
Two things should get you pumped about the prospects of winning in the arena of ideas using gesture-based interactions.
#1 – Highland Capital Partners, which led Leap Motion's Series A round only a year ago, is making moves with a $25M Leap Fund to help boost entrepreneurs and companies developing on Leap Motion technology.
#2 – Pathfinder’s very own tech wiz George Korsnick will be demoing the power of Leap Motion technology at an Open House we’re having on July 22nd…with FREE Chicago Style Pizza and Local Craft Beer.
Some of Chicago’s tech gladiators have already confirmed (wink wink you all still need to register though)...so show up armed and ready for some lively banter.
Space is limited and we expect to fill up fast....REGISTER HERE.
Note...We're HIRING so bring your Ruby and .NET friends.

Any questions or suggestions welcome.
Gesture to you soon.
