Providing the Missing Piece in the Global Distribution Landscape: Migo Founder Featured on the IBC Podcast
Summary
Migo’s Founder and Chairman Barrett Comiskey was recently featured in the latest edition of the IBC Podcast, a leading program interviewing leaders from the content and technology industry. After disrupting the mature publishing industry, Barrett applied the same innovation mindset at E Ink to deliver huge amounts of data to the under-innovated emerging markets. He said Migo started with video, which is 80% of global internet traffic, as the "initial stock on the shelves” but the goal has always been to deliver rich digital products to mass-market consumers. Backed by Temasek, YouTube’s Co-Founding CTO, blue chip VCs, and key industry insiders, Migo can permanently zero-rate data costs for mobile-only consumers. Migo also plans to launch additional verticals including Music, Ebooks, Games, Digital Financial Services and Offline E-commerce in the next couple of years.
