AT&T opens second Foundry lab in Plano, Texas, hopes to foster the ‘Internet of Things’

AT&T opening second Foundry lab in Plano, focusing on the Internet of Everything

Carriers need to innovate their way to bigger profits, so AT&T has been opening up foundries — startup incubators that try and recreate the spirit of Bell Labs. While the company already has a software-focused facility in Plano, ‘Ma Bell has now rented the office space directly above it for the follow-up. The second Texas facility will concentrate on hardware for the “Internet of Things,” packing gear like a faraday cage, fast prototyping equipment and 3D printers. Aspiring inventors should just bear in mind that whatever you go there to build will probably need to sell a wireless plan alongside — after all, AT&T is paying the bills.

YSL Youth Liberator

Yves Saint Laurent has been at the leading edge of women’s appearance since 1962. From apparel, to accessories, YSL has always held the notion that a woman’s appearance is her fortune. This appearance is what defines her place in the world, be it Queen Mother, or soccer mom, and everything in between. These days, appearances aren’t just kept by some over-the-counter makeup. Appearances take time to groom, takes effort to maintain and requires technology to be refined. This is how Yves Saint Laurent designed their ForeverYouth Liberator line.

JumpStartFund CrowdPowered Portal For Startups

JumpStartFund CrowdPowered Portal For Startups

We all know Kickstarter or Indiegogo, the popular  crowd-funding websites that allow anyone with a good project to seek funding. We published our share of Kickstarter and Indiegogo campaigns on here, simply because the creativity of the ideas is amazing and the video demos are always fun to watch.

Last Thursday, the launch of JumpstartFund opened the door to a new breed of crowd powered product design that aims to help startups execute their best concepts. The best ideas and patents are evaluated by the JumpstartFund team for marketability and when selected, they are moved into  the “work in progress” status on the site, where community members can collaborate, using their own specific skills, to eventually turn them into viable and successful companies.

JumpStartFund is built with a social network where members can participate and vote, and in return, they are rewarded with Advisory Points that equal a commission on the company’s revenue for the first year. They must stay actively involved in at least 50% of the crowdsourced activities related to that company (over its lifetime) to maintain that commission.

On the paper, JumpStart looks like a great platform to test and fund new product concepts, seek new innovations for existing patents, and find the best teams to execute the best ideas.
