PavlokPavlok is a wearable device company that helps people form habits. It's easy to write an essay when there’s a deadline right? Because there is accountability. But no one cares if you don't go to the gym. What if there was accountability? What if you had to do what you said you'd do, or your phone got locked? Or it posted your failure on your facebook wall?

That's Pavlok.

NuoDBNuoDB, the NewSQL leader, was first envisioned by industry-renowned database architect and innovator Jim Starkey in 2008. In 2010 he was joined by enterprise software CEO Barry Morris to launch a company that has re-defined relational database technology to tackle today’s market needs. Fundamental to our founders’ vision was the idea of developing a database system that builds on the power of SQL to move relational technology beyond traditional monolithic databases. The result is an operational DBMS that delivers innovations in scale-out performance, zero downtime, dynamic multi-tenancy, and active-active geo-distribution anywhere, anytime.
