PandoDaily

PandoDaily, founded in January 2012 by journalist Sarah Lacy, was a digital media company based in San Francisco, California.

It focused on delivering high-quality technology news, analysis, and commentary, serving as a key resource for the startup ecosystem. The company's name reflects the interconnected nature of the startup world, inspired by the Pando Trees in Utah. PandoDaily's core offering was its digital news platform, which provided daily coverage of breaking news, in-depth analysis, and specialized reporting on venture capital and startup activities. The company also organized industry events, including the Emmy-nominated PandoMonthly series, fostering networking and discussion among tech leaders. Its content targeted startup founders, venture capitalists, technology executives, and the broader tech community, positioning itself as a vital source of information in Silicon Valley. PandoDaily operated independently until its acquisition by an adtech company in 2019, leaving a lasting impact on digital journalism.
