Quote of the Day

“Austin has become, in no uncertain terms, really an extension of Silicon Valley. All of the giants that devour engineers on a daily basis, like Google, like Apple, and companies that are in our space, like Scientific Games, or adjacent verticals, like Zynga, are all down there, competing for the talent among themselves, but also competing for the talent that’s coming from the university, because they have an extremely strong program.” — Everi Holdings CEO Michael Rumbolz on his company’s decision to base its technical operations in Texas.
