Private?......followed by an IPO in 2 years I'll bet. This whole PWC thingee is getting more confusing than enlightening these days. Who's making the next move? Let us know PP. TIA.
The advertisers and major players are realizing the adoption will be in 2d codes, not 1d codes.
1d codes are "owned" by corporations. 2d codes are being created by corps and individuals.
The playing field appears to be changing, which in itself is disruptive.
PWC cos should recognize this shift is coming in 2d codes.
Who can make a 2d code? Anybody.
Who has an ecommerce and shipping platform and just added a telecom infrastructure?
Stay tuned.
Amazon, silly.
Wrong.
Boo...Apple?
One more strike. Apple doesnt have a telco platform..yet
Must be that Google fella you keep talking about...lol.
I think the buyout number is too low. What do you think is the motivation?
