Watch + Vote! #CUBEMadness 2014 starts this week
Since its inception in 2009, many Tech Athletes have appeared as guests on theCUBE, SiliconANGLE’s premiere video production where we extract the signal from the noise to reveal a clear understanding of what’s happening in the world of technology.
theCUBE now has over 3,200 interviews, all of which are available on SiliconANGLE’s YouTube channel, if you’re interested. But who among these Tech Athletes were the crowd favorites? Which interviews best extracted the signal from the noise?
On March 20, 2014, SiliconANGLE will be launching the #CUBEMadness, a tournament designed to pit Tech Athletes against one another where only one victor can emerge.

This is a tournament showcasing the best CUBE interviews since its production began in 2009. SiliconANGLE has created a proprietary algorithm to determine which theCUBE videos extracted the most signal from the noise. Four regions have been determined: Cloud, Big Data, Infrastructure, and Tech Athletes; with eight participants coming from each region. These eight participants will battle it out for the right to play in the #CUBEMadness Final Four.
All match-ups will be randomly created. There is no seeding. And you, our viewers, will be the ones voting for your favorite Tech Athlete.
Spread the word! Invite your friends to support your favorite Tech Athlete. Vote often.
Who will emerge victorious? Who will be the crowd favorite? Will this have a movie-like ending wherein the underdog or the least expected Tech Athlete wins the lot?
Expect drama, controversy, rivalries, and tears shed, as these Tech Athletes go head-to-head for the crowd’s approval.
Let the battle begin!
