Comics by Comixology has become the de facto tablet reading platform for comic books.

Watch the interview with Steinberger to learn how failing at a business plan competition helped him refine the business for success, how he positioned the company to quickly cut deals with the giants of the space and learn why he created two distinct business plans for his company prior to launching his app.
