The Best View of Pittsburgh featured on Steve Case’s RiseoftheRest.com

September 3, 2014 Lindsay

This morning I clicked on the link in a recent tweet from Steve Case…

ON THE ROAD AGAIN: Announcing next #RiseOfRest startup tour #Madison #Minneapolis #DesMoines #KansasCity #StLouis http://t.co/cQYdDfzjoS

… and I spotted a familiar site on the Rise of the Rest website.

Rise of the Rest Website - Pittsburgh skyline

Take a look at the video that is on the front page of RiseoftheRest.com – while everyone talks about the view from Mt. Washington, I never get tired of the view of Pittsburgh as you come through the tunnels.

The Rise of the Rest tour, which is organized by AOL co-founder Steve Case stopped in Pittsburgh earlier this summer.  Pittsburgh startup SolePower was the winner of the $100,000 prize.

Click here to see just the video that is being shown on the Rise of the Rest homepage.
