Three startups that we learned about last winter
While everyone is trying to justify their IMHO regarding the efficiency of Startup Battle Moscow in the framework of TechCrunch Moscow, we decided to find the easiest way to determine it: just look at the result of the last battle.
Full list of participants is here . And in this post - about the third part of this list. You may have heard the names of these projects: SpeakToIt , Zingaya and Yam Labs .
Details about all three projects and the bonuses they got after the battle - under the cut.

Project Yam Labs (second place last year at TechCrunch) offers services for the preparation, conduct and control of meetings and conferences.
In the spring of 2011, the venture fund Foresight Ventures bought a stake in the project for $ 500 thousand (the Foresight Ventures fund invests in innovative IT and Hi-Tech projects at the seed and early stages).
The Zingaya project (click-to-call widget) conducted the first investment round, receiving a $ 1.15 million investment. Now the project is based in London, among its customers are Qiwi, S7 Airlines, and the plans include integration with Yandex.
Nostalgic: post of the project in the blog "I am promoting".
The SpeakToIt project, which proposed the use of a virtual assistant in a mobile phone, became a member of the Herring Top 100 Europe list and won the Stanford SSE LAbs Demo Day. In addition, the authors of the project have finally released a full-fledged version of the service, which can already be tested on your own smartphone.

We continue to follow Startup Battle-2010 start-up startup companies (I’ll suggest to write everything that we’ve missed out on in bold comments) and register Startup Battle-2011 participants.
UPD Already received the first additions from the audience:
The Actio.tv project (technology that allows you to make objects inside the video interactive and clickable) received the first investment before participating in Startup Battle, in 2009. Already in 2010, before the premiere of the film The Chronicles of Narnia, the 20th Century FOX film company announced the trailer for the film on RuTube: “In anticipation of the premiere, we are pleased that viewers will be able to watch the trailer for the film in the format of an interactive video from Actio.tv on RuTube.ru”.
In February, the author of the project modestly noted: “Well, as for Actio, I would not be in a hurry to summarize even the interim results.” Instead of authors, the interim results were summarized by others: on June 14 of this year, the project received the People's Choice Award at the European Microsoft Bizspark Summit in Brussels.
