OpenMike Comment from Michael Shafer
Superior, human-driven tools are needed to explore and analyze the subtle connections that exist in vast networks of heterogeneous information. In 2004, a close-knit group of seasoned entrepreneurs from the early days of PayPal, eBay, and other successful Silicon Valley companies teamed up with friends from StanfordÆs CS PhD program to tackle this new space. Information analysis and its use in investigations and knowledge management have been redefined by the teamÆs combined breakthroughs in search, collaboration, and visualization.

The result of this remarkable partnership was Palantir, a thriving company whose technology has garnered intense and enthusiastic interest from its diverse customer base.
