Match Group's Sam Yagan wants to join the date

USATODAY - Tech Top Stories

BEVERLY HILLS -- Sam Yagan's goal: to go out on a date with you. As the Vice Chair of the Match Group, which owns many of the top used dating apps, including Tinder, Match, OK Cupid and Plenty of Fish, Yagan looks to bring the apps to the next level. That is, feedback about your dates. "The data will be transformative," Yagan told USA TODAY, in an exclusive #TalkingTech video and audio interview here. "As we get to kind of go on that date with you, and be part of your life as you carry the apps with you, we will learn a lot more, and do a better job of matching you up." "Well, the first step is actually knowing that you went out on the date," he says.
