Techcrunch has personal news! | Techcrunch

If you haven’t heard the news, the techcrunch has a bright new house. After years under the ownership of Yahoo – which, in turn, is supported by Group Apollo Group – the brand is now in new hands. The new mother company: Regent, a dynamic company for private shares with a varied portfolio that stretches on the media, retail and manufacturing. Regent was established 12 years ago by Michael Rinchetein, a one -time founder, who quickly realized that he might have a brighter future as an executive director and has an indisputable passion for breaking.

Although the financial conditions remain unannounced, there is one clear thing: Regent acquires an initial brand. Techcrunch is not just a technical news site; It is the most influential voice that highlights innovation in the Silicon Valley and beyond. Getting has always been a traffic ritual for emerging companies, but our mission is far more than those familiar with the industry who make up our main readers. We aim to give everyone a seat in the front row at all for the future of technology. Whether you are a founder, investor, or curious person on how to reshape the technology in the world, we help you see the next by reporting the news, then put the pieces together to give you the largest picture.

The best part: This deal was organized to ensure minimal disorder in Techcrunch operations. You can think about it almost like updating the program instead of repairing the system. In San Francisco and New York, we will move to new offices rented by Regent. (Goodbye, the financial neighborhood; hello, Soma!) And Yahoo does not completely cut ties – it maintains a small interest in the company. (What can we say? It is difficult to give up Techcrunch.) With regard to Yahoo Jim Lanzone CEO, who was a great guide and a sound plate and because I am very grateful.

But here is what really matters: the same team of expert journalists you know and their confidence will continue to present the stories that must be read to the technology world. Without a doubt, this is the strongest Techcrunch team that we had at all, and we were lucky to work with some amazing talent over the years.

Techcrunch was in the heart of the Silicon Valley since it was founded by Michael Arrington and Keith Hook in 2005. With constant support from readers and advertisers, we covered all the direction of the main technology, every billionaire of fighting, and every industry. We just started. Many of the founders and executives we have written about over the years are now working on forming policies in Washington, we will be there, and we reach what is happening after that.

Yahoo decided to sell Techcrunch because in the end, our DNA is simply different from the rest of its wallet. While Yahoo SPORTS, Yahoo News and Yahoo Finance excelled in assembly, Techcrunch was always about original reports and news analysis. The timing of the sale is also logical. While a lot of news industry has been installed in the face of a set of challenges-among the summaries created from artificial intelligence to Twitter’s development to X-Techcrunch cleared the trend over the past year, steadily developed. Our secret? We put readers first, and provide the news that we must know without bias, and we appear the wild human side, often ridiculous, in the world of technology.

As close -up followers of Techcrunch already know, this is not our first Rodio when it comes to a new ownership (we all still have a booty of AOL and Verizon). But what matters most in this transition is to make sure that our team maintains freedom and support to do what we do better. With Regista, we have it exactly.

Until Yahoo, thank you for standing through some of the most striking times. And to Regent, we love your enthusiasm for what we are doing and we are excited to start this next chapter with you. Now let’s do this
