CartoDB won 'Startup showcase' at the Tools of Change for Publishing conference

This past Wednesday we attended O'Reilly's Tools of Change for Publishing conference in New York as a Startup Showcase final contestant, and on the following day we were informed that we had been selected as one of three winners.

The ten finalists, and even the semi-final twenty were all great projects with monumental potential in the publishing space.

As a company that is not centrally focused on publishing, being treated with such high regard in the community is not only a great honor to us, but we're absolutely humbled by the amazing reaction which we received from the publishing and journalism community. It is a great demonstration of the flexibility of our product to match different needs on different sectors.

In order to acknowledge this, we have decided to offer a limited three month 10% discount code for this week only on all new paid CartoDB accounts. Simply enter the code "TOCCONPUBLISHER" when you sign up for a paid plan to receive the discount.

Thanks you all so much, and we look forward to seeing many more maps and visualizations built by the publishing and journalism communities in the months to come.

Stay tuned!
