The Information

In late 2013, we started The Information with a clear vision: to produce in-depth articles about the tech industry that offer insights you won't see anywhere else. Since our launch, we've covered significant market shifts, reported on early details of multi-billion dollar acquisitions, and provided a closer look at what’s happening within major companies like Apple, Facebook, and Google. Our work has attracted attention from leading publications such as the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, and Bloomberg, with thousands of citations. Our approach to competition is straightforward. We hire top-notch reporters, empower them to explore meaningful stories, and encourage them to focus on the big picture rather than minor details.
