A cellular mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) aiming its mobile service at young adults scored funding Monday from one of the largest music companies.
Universal Music Group (UMG) was among the companies providing funding to Amp's Mobile, which says it is aiming 18-to-35 year-olds. It said it will use the investment to launch services later this year.
MVNO's look to customers like regular mobile operators but they lease spectrum from existing wireless operators. In this case, Amp'd Mobile will be using 3G spectrum from Sprint. Typically, MVNOs target a specific market segement.
Besides UMG, others joining in this round of investments include Highland Capital Partners, Columbia Capital and Redpoint Ventures.
With the move to the cloud, CISOs must shift priorities from operating security programs to overseeing (monitoring and auditing) outsourced cybersecurity programs.
2022 was a boon year for IT salaries. 2023 came in like a beast with layoffs, raise freezes, and ChatGPT, but that beast has few teeth.
Age is only a number. Don't let a high number cancel your career.
