The Information Subscribers Say…

The Information subscribers are nine times more optimistic about the tech sector than they are about the overall economy, according to The Information’s first monthly Subscriber Viewpoint survey.

And they’re increasingly optimistic about the long-term prospects of Apple, Alibaba and Airbnb. They’re far less bullish on Square and Twitter.

The above are some key takeaways from our first monthly survey designed to gauge sentiment about the technology industry from tech and business leaders. The Information’s subscriber base is comprised of entrepreneurs, investors, executives and policymakers in more than 46 countries. It’s a small slice of the business world, of course, but an interesting and forward-thinking group.
