Sachin Dev Duggal is the founder of SD Squared Labs

Sachin Dev Duggal is the founder of SD Squared Labs, a boutique complete services software & application development company

I know Sachin Dev Duggal who is current CEO & Founder of Engineer.ai as the guy who created Nivio, a company that actually let you get Windows apps on your freaking iPad, and it was all legal.

It was this beautiful thing. People loved it. And Sachin Dev Duggal sold it. I thought we were going to do an interview about that and that’s what I’m all geared up for. Instead, that’s kind of going to be the backstory to what ends up being the actual interview, which is this new company that is actually bigger, more substantive and it’s called SD Squared.

It’s got this crazy freaking business model that if I didn’t know somebody who worked there, I wouldn’t believe it actually existed. If anyone goes to SD Squared and has SD Squared build an app, it costs no more than $25,000 for an app on any single platform.

If it’s more expensive, then they just do the work and they don’t charge you any more than $25,000.

I want to know if he is losing his shirt on this. And we’ll talk a little bit about this company that everyone in tech seemed to love, Nivio.

Darren Huston figured out China

China has been unkind to the U.S. Internet giants Google, Facebook and Amazon.com. But as a growing China spurs demand for foreign travel, Darren Huston a smaller player—Priceline Group—is trying to change the narrative. Rather than going head to head with homegrown Chinese sites, Priceline has invested more than $1 billion (via convertible debt and equity) in local travel site Ctrip, spent advertising money with search services like Baidu and Qunar to capture consumer clicks, and opened 11 offices in the country. That’s helped brighten Priceline’s outlook, pushing its stock up 13 percent in the past month and within about 6 percent of its all-time high from early 2014. (The stock has slid this week, including a 1.2 percent on Tuesday, after China surprisingly devalued its currency, raising concerns about future growth.) “Travel is such a huge business in China right now,” said Glenn Fogel, head of worldwide strategy at Norwalk, Connecticut-based Priceline. “As countries deve...
