Bloom in Tech

Snap's Great Week Doesn't Solve Everything Yet


Listen Later

Even hanging for a few days at Las Olas Resort in western Panama, one thing was pretty obvious to me about Snap's week of big news: they've only just begun to dig out the big hole Evan Spiegel and the rest of his team constructed for themselves. Yes, the company has new original shows, multiplayer games, an ad network, a much-improved Android app, some very interesting partnerships in the U.S. and abroad and more. But boy, none of this stuff is easy, and Snap has some pretty intimidating challengers, including some newer faces. In my latest podcast, recorded next to a fabulous beach in Playa La Barqueta, I talk about  what's ahead for Snapchat. Give it a listen and let me know what you think of Snap's prospects. Are you willing to invest? Think it's crazy to put money into companies controlled by their CEOs? let me know on Twitter @DavidBloom or on LinkedIn at /davidlbloom. As always, like, rate and share if you think this is good for your pals to listen to as well. I'll have some more stuff from Panama, including conversations with Edward James Olmos, the Sundance Institute and the former head of the Sundance Channel all still to come.
