The old saying is out of hardship and adversity comes innovation.
Just take a look at the University of Texas’ McCombs School of Business and its use of a hologram application called Recourse to beam a professor into the classroom during the Coronavirus pandemic.
The application is the brainchild of Contextual Content Group, a new startup headed up by serial entrepreneur Jim Spencer. He sold his last venture, Newsy, an early mobile and streaming video online news service, for $35 million to E.W. Scripps Company in 2013. Before that, Spencer served as vice president at Ask Jeeves, general manager of news and information programming at AOL, and executive director of strategic partnerships at NBC.
