It's been exciting for me to play a role in the convergence between wireless technologies and health over the past 10 years and I see the $10 million Qualcomm Tricorder X PRIZE competition as an impetus to accelerate innovations within the health space even more rapidly.

Just before the 4th of July weekend I had announced that I was was going to do a giveaway for a boat-load... er, spaceship-load of loot to one lucky person who was within the, at that time, next 1000 followers on our Facebook and Twitter.

A couple of weeks ago at the Google Lunar X PRIZE Team Summit, an announcement was made that team Next Giant Leap has been acquired by Moon Express. As a well-established team with several valuable partnerships (such as Draper Labs and Sierra Nevada Corporation), NGL is undoubtedly a strategic asset for Moon Express; and it is worth noting that we fully expect to see more of these types of acquisitions and mergers occurring between teams as the competition progresses. In fact, X PRIZE considers these to be positive indicators of the maturation and advancement of the prize.
